If any of you discredit that report, your head is deeply planted in the sand. Not so much about America breaking up, or Russia claiming Alaska, but he is on the money about the fact that our country is on the brink of collapse. No one is adressing the real issues though.. I wonder why??

Because if we can get consumers out spending money, the wheels will turn and everything will be good again.

Gotta side with Stripeman. You can have a prosperous overall economy and a trade deficit, but you can't have a prosperous overall economy and low consumer spending.

Spending on imported goods is partly what got us into this mess. We need spending on domestic products so that our economy can self sustain..

jobs need to be created to manufacture in the US.. global trade favors our competitors and the top 1% of americans.

I agree, but was being labeled a looney in the How bad is it Thread. For some reason I dont understand why people cannot see what is goign on around them. Are we numb to the facts?
