Most banks in the United States use money boxes for transporting money inside and outside of their safes. It is the most secure way to transport large sums of money from one bank to another.
Poor monitoring by the US of the banks lead to banks loaning money to people that were not able to pay them back. And/or interest rates went up and many were not able to pay and the US banks were not making money. Now the banks don't have as much money to loan to people and no one has money. Most banks in the world are tied into the US banks and so they have less money too. also, tony Blair and George Bush had tea with kim jong il :)
Yes - Banks usually have a foreign exchange counter.
My understanding is that the US has not adopted the IBAN system and won't until 2010. Some US banks are in the SWIFT network which makes it easier to receive international wire transfers. The remaining US banks require the use of corresponding banks for receiving international wire transfers (and have just a routing number). More money disappears from the wire amount in fees when there is no SWIFT code.

The US Postal Service offers free boxes. These are restricted to use through the USPS.
When President Jackson did not renew the charter for the Bank of the US the government stated putting money in state banks. Money lending fell on these banks and four anti-bank resolutions were approved.
Yes private banks print money out of thin air and then lend it to the Government WITH interest The US dollar, Canadian Dollar and the Euro are some of the trash money printed by private banks, and most of your income tax goes to the private banks NOT government services. its the biggest scam in history.
