Dollars no longer accepted at the Taj Mahal. Or Parisian flea markets.
George Washington at an all-time low against the Brazilian real since it was freely floated in 1999.
Brazilian moneychangers offering Chinese yuan to cut out dollars as a middleman.
Meanwhile, if Peruvians are hoaring their native soles currency instead of the dollar, you know the greenback really sucks.
And, unlike the 1970s oil crises and stagflation, the dollar has a competitor currency today.
Tour operators in Agra, India, near the Taj Mahal, will take euros. So will the Parisian flea markets, of course.
