  • Foolish, Foolish, Foolish. Russia should stay away from US T Bill and should dump the ones they have. The Dollar is going to crash and those TBills are going to be worth toilet paper.

  • dont forget that treasury bills have a negative interest right now

  • HOW can they buy treasuries when USA T-bills are already toilet paper .. GOLD and Silver are much better invsetment right now and for the future.

  • We have gone off track because of bad spending in Iraq and Obama's crazy stimulus. Don't worry, in 2012 a fiscal conservative comes to power and we reduce the debt greatly. Obama will be out in 2012

  • In the 1970's the USA used to be the worlds largest Creditor nation. Total opposite of today.

  • The jews are ethnically cleansing whites and arabs world wide. Don't let the Jews take hold of you Russia or they will sell you crap like MTV and multiculturalism (white genocide)

  • Yes! Your right! It is sad that the whole world's economy became so dependent on us fat, ugly, stupid, irresponsible Americans and if the rest of the world keeps buying T-Bills, Americans will only get fatter, uglier, dumber and more irresponsible. Maybe if China and Russia does decide to pull the rug out from under us, maybe us Yankees may actually start to smarten up .

  • Good Point shockolanu!

    Vladamir Putin is very smart man and would know better to think t-bills are a good investment these days. There must be some strategic ulterior motive behind such a large purchase of T-bills..

  • The Neo-Cons and Zionist are running our nation right into the ground.

  • LOL! How can Russia wish for the USA's collapse and at the same time stock up on its T-Bonds? If the US does collapse, those T-Bonds will be worthless!! China, Japan, and now Russia will have quadrillion of US bonds to burn to keep themselves warm in winter. Thank you, thank you, Russia!
