I guess "deficits don't matter".

1. ask the japanese about buying us property

that did`t work out to well...they lost 100`s of millions if not billions of dollars in the us property market.

[KoKo]

2. True...but this time we are a different country.

and who knows if those investments would go the way they did with the Japanese real estate investments.
Globilization has taken root...and alot is out of our hands to control anything because global markets are so managaged, now.

3. Does it really matter

if American workers and consumers are being abused and exploited by an American corporation as opposed to one owned by the British or the Chinese?

4. We buy cheap Chinese shit so they can by America

[erpowers]

5. Let Americans Buy America

I realize that many Americans do not have that much money these days, but I contend the government should asking Americans to buy more treasury bonds. There should be a big push to get Americans to invest in this country so that there is less ability for foreign countries to buy into America.

6. Did anybody else notice that CNN doesn't know how to

represent $1.3 trillion in numbers.

It should look like this:- $1,300,000,000,000

Their depiction left off the last three zeroes.

7. Bush has really destroyed this country

economy military and educationally

8. And he had a lot of help...

from both sides of the aisle.
