I was thinking like $1.20 per 1EUR.  But that's cuz the Euro has been stronger than the dollar the entire time it has been in circulation.

It depends upon if/when a debt crisis happens in the United States before or after some of the other Euro nations, such as Portugal, Spain and Italy.  If those three all go before the USA, then I expect parity before another rise.

There shouldn't be any debt crisis in the US.

On a related note, French President Sarkozy reportedly threatened to have France pulled out of the Euro.

That is why I wrote if/when. Besides, the national debt is about 85% of GDP, and expected to climb higher.

I voted $1-$1.15 for this poll.

Last I heard on Friday the Euro was at $1.23 versus the US Dollar.

I suppose it could go below parity, but its not like the US's finances are great right now.
