[FRANK: Who runs one of the banks in Iraq]
said all that is needed at this point is a new rate to push forward the remaining things.
The budget has not been released yet but it will be. Then the HCL also needs to be voted and we need the Speaker of the House.
All of these things are working together. To see that budget and the HCL we're going to need to see the Real Effective Exchange Rate.
FRANK: The Real Effective Exchange Rate will come when it starts to float. That's part two of the 'hybrid monetary reform plan'. Part One is to give you purchasing power. I agree with Mr. Sammy...
there are major events that are coming to an intersection that will collide with great force for your new exchange rate and currency.
