Answer to Question 1

(1 ) Monetary policy autonomy  Governments would be able to use monetary policy to reach internal and external balance. No country would be forced to import inflation and deflation from abroad.
(2 ) Symmetry  The United States would no longer be able to set world monetary conditions all by itself. The United States would have the same opportunity as other countries to influence its exchange rate against foreign currencies.
(3 ) Exchange rates as automatic stabilizers  The long and agonizing periods of speculation preceding exchange rate realignments would not occur under floating.

Answer to Question 2

Called for a single currency by January 1, 1999, harmonizing social security policy within the European Union, and centralizing foreign and defense policy decisions.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Did you know?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
