They can sell 100 percent of their assests to China for 50 percent of their debt on a forced free trade agreement. Things should be OK.

THE USA has become the same as the europe the settlers wished to escape, where e few people own most property and charge excessive rent, so keeping the rest poor.

Allfarmer,

The US should have gone broke a dozen times over the past 200 years. It didn't happen. As long as US farmers grow 150 million acres of corn and beans... that economy with perculate along just fine. The diversity of Industrial and Agriculture economics...means that this US power house is PRODUCTIVE... and the world depends upon half of this production to make ends meet.

Innovation and Asia-Pacific prosperity is still rooted in US soil. The EU has proven the 'Eco-Environmental Economy' is NOT sustainable.

There is no need to worry about really big issues such as if the US "goes broke". It would have such catastrophic ramifications that there would be an unimaginable financial collapse.
Its similar to a nuclear holocaust; that the world has been threatened with for years. Look at that prospect in the light of if it ever happens; one would have been "Better to be dead with a near direct nuclear strike; than wish you were dead from world wide suffering."
It's next to useless contemplating such possibilities; and building bomb shelters etc........

It already is broke!

And there is going to be a massive financial
restructuring.

The world isnt going to end but some bad things
will happen just like they have hundreds of times
before throught the world.

Just never in our little bubble.
