Are you stupid or something?

How does currency changes mean that I or anybody else are exploiting people? Especially consider a weak currency BENEFITS many poor people.

Explain, if you can.

You do know that a weak currency actually BENEFITS many people, right? For years, businesses have been leaving Thailand and going to neighbours instead because of the exchange rates, among other people.

A weaker currency will mean more exports, and more tourists, helping some of the poorer people in the country. A weaker currency will help give the economy a much-needed shot in the arm because people will bring more foreign currency into the country.

All this time a strong baht has been affecting people's incomes, have you spoken out for those suffering?

No?

How could you be so selfish?

Or did you just not understand how it works?
