Это алармистский сайт или какой другой?According to the EPI report, the growing U.S. trade deficit with China has cost jobs in every one of the nation's congressional districts, including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Between 2001 and 2010, the computer and electronic parts industry was hit the hardest, as more than 909,400 jobs were displaced. The rapidly growing number of imports of computer and electronic parts, including semiconductors and audio-video equipment, accounted for more than 44 percent of the $194 billion increase in the U.S. trade deficit with China during that time.

Exports to China climbed to the highest since December 2010, showing sustained demand from the nation for US-made goods.

That statistic, courtesy of the Economic Policy Institute, is alarming on a couple of fronts. First, and most obviously, the U.S. economy can't recover unless people have work. Employees are consumers, so job-losses curb domestic spending, which hurts businesses and discourages hiring. Competition with overseas laborers also drives down wages for U.S. workers, further reducing their purchasing power. Says former U.S. Assistant Treasury Secretary C. Fred Bergsten in an op-ed this week:
It is clear that our economy can no longer rely on consumer borrowing, housing bubbles, government deficits and super-low interest rates. The United States must start selling much more to other countries, especially China and other emerging markets that are growing at 6 percent or more per year.
Еще нелепые алармсты, Economic Policy Institute: http://www.epi.org/publication/webfeatu ... testimony/Why an Ongoing Trade Deficit Weakens the Economy:
An ongoing trade deficit is detrimental to the nation’s economy over the long term because it is financed with debt. In other words, the U.S. can buy more than it makes because the countries that it buys from are lending it the money. It is like a party where you’ve run out of money, but the pizza place is willing to keep sending you pizzas and put it on your tab. Of course, this can only go on as long as there are no other customers for the pizza, and the pizza place can afford to loan you the money. One day the lending countries may decide to ask the U.S. to repay the debt. On that day, the party is over.
Ну и напоследок, CRS Report for Congress - вот где гнездо зловредных алармистов! Кстати, этот доклад писали идиоты вроде меня, приравнивающие торговый дефицит к долгу:The growth in the trade deficit over the past two decades has destroyed millions of high-wage, high skilled manufacturing jobs in the U.S., and pushed workers into other sectors where wages are lower, such as restaurants and health service industries. When I appeared before this committee last spring, I summarized EPI forecasts that the Asia Crisis would lead to the elimination of one million jobs in the U.S., with most of the losses concentrated in the manufacturing sectors of the economy (Scott and Rothstein 1998). These job losses have begun to materialize, despite the continuing boom in the rest of the economy. The U.S. has lost nearly 500,000 manufacturing jobs since March of 1998, due to the impact of the rising trade deficit. [2]
The IMF recently forecast that the U.S. current account deficit (the broadest measure of the trade balance) would reach nearly $300 billion in 1999, exceeding 3.5 percent of GDP for the first time in the post-war era (IMF 1999). The U.S. can expect to lose another 400,000 to 500,000 manufacturing jobs as a result, even if the economy continues to expand at its current pace in 1999.

As discussed earlier, until 2006, the investment income balance has shown a
surplus in the $20 billion — $30 billion range for the past 30 years. In recent years,
the surplus of investment income has persisted despite the United States having a
large negative international investment position (i.e., a large external debt). This
continuing surplus meant that, so far, there has been no true debt service burden to the
U.S. economy from its external debt. This has happened because there has been no net
outflow of investment income, meanings there was no net diversion of U.S. real
output to the rest of the world to service the external debt. In part, this lack of burden
has been the result of the favorable effects of the recently strong dollar on the value
of external assets and of recent low interest rates on the magnitude of external
payments. However, the dollar is now on a downward path and interest rates have
risen. Over the long run, if the trade deficit remains on its current upward trajectory,
the volume of debt obligations will continue to grow, and as a result it is credible to
expect U.S. international debt payments to also grow. It is possible that U.S. foreign
debt service payments will reach or exceed $100 billion before the current account
deficit is erased and net foreign borrowing stops.
....
Looking to the future, trade deficit induced erosion of the U.S. manufacturing
sector may also undercut the country’s ability to make future debt service payments
to foreign creditors. Manufacturing is a major part of the exporting sector and it is
that sector which will be the means for paying debt service. A healthy manufacturing
sector is likely to make that task easier.
