  • so what is our regular output here in the usa in production. ya its easy to always raise pay when our inflation forces you to raise pay and you have a printing press and no commodity based economy to stop them from using it..

  • the debt that a country can carry is related to it's income, just like a person. a guy who makes a hundred thou a year could carry a couple hundred thou in debt with no problem. but a guy who makes 10 000 a year, we wouldn't want him to have hundreds of thousands in debt. looking at debt as a percentage of a countries gdp is useful. since the states isn't as high (japan, italy are high) we shouldn't worry. since dubai has actually asked for a rescheduling, we have a problem.

  • tot. united arab emirates debt between 200-250 billion

    tot. usa debt between 12-13 trillion..

    hmm what should we be concerned with here..?

  • Dubai has Money and Gold. Why are we worrying about some place across the World?

  • ahahaa how funny it is for us to point our fingers at dubai when the usa is the biggest debtor nation in the history of the world
