Default Re: U.S. businesses accept pesos. Immigration hawks go nuts.

Why is this such a big deal? I paid with Canadian dollars at a restaurant (national chain) in Bellingham, WA earlier this year. All that happened was I got raped on the exchange.

Yeah, but Canadian people are largely white, so when they come and give us their funny looking monopoly money and toonies with ducks on them, it's not a problem. In fact, it's largely a source of curiosity, if not a minor annoyance because their stupid coins don't fit in American vending machines.

On the other hand, the dark people's money is obviously scary, threatening, and constitutes a grave and gathering threat to national sovereignty.
