Это всё словеса, поэтому даваёте лучше обратимся к фактам и цифрам. Ниже отрывок из статьи экономиста Geoffrey Dunn (не поленитесь просмотреть - возможно Ваш оптимизм несколько поубавится) :
...The U.S. dollar has sunk to new lows in Europe and Asia. The housing and mortgage industries are in shambles. Oil prices are sryrocketed. Even more significantly, national debt has reached an astonishing high of $9 trillion.
That's right , $9 trillion.
It's hard to fathom such a figure.
What this means is that each year the United States is paying off more than $200 billion in off-shore interest. China holds more than $1 trillion of our debt,. Japan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Brasil, India - even Thailand - hold large portions.
Think about it. What would happen if China or another country holding our national debt suddenly call in the bill?
The answer is national economic disaster. And it's the deep dark secret of the American economy. Under Bush II , the national debt has gone up 70% in the past three years alone.
