This is a game changer, folks. Get ready.
Not for the first time America has stuffed up and has the global economy off balanceas a result, well done! takes alot of effort buy a few ****heads to do that kind of damage
Just 3. Pelosi, Reid, and Obama. Never in history has our credit rating been lowered. So this is a first for the community organizer! He'll go down in history as the failure he was. I predicted he would make Jimmy Carter look like a genius, and so far I've been proven correct in so many ways on that one.
the state of the US economy is generations in the making. probably started in the Nixon administration, when the US dollar's gold standard was done away with. that and the fact US no longer manufacture stuff like before.
WOW, blue, what are you smoking? S&P noted perceived instability in our nations ability to govern itself. It wasn't the above three that held America hostage to get what they wanted at the cost of our good standing.
You don't have a leg to stand on in this issue.
you act like the one of the greatest financial disasters in the history of human kind didnt happen under the republicans watch... they get control, start off with a questionable disaster and a questionable response and end with a complete financial meltdown... yeah, that was all obama... 8 years of genius right there... geeeeez
funny how you rarely mentioned ried till recently, now he's all the rage... you are a follower... not one original though has come under your name... not one...
I 'figure' because it's true.

There is more to manufacturing in the world than sneakers and poison toys.
Our debt is so large because the dopes in Washington can't grasp the formula: How much money you have = How much money you can spend

true, but USA's output per capita isn't the world's greatest. China's been growing in the past couple decades because the US companies want to keep their production cost down.
"In 2007, the top manufacturing countries besides the United States were China ($1,106 billion USD), Japan ($926 billion USD), Germany ($670 billion USD), the Russian Federation ($362 billion USD), Italy ($345 billion USD), the United Kingdom ($342 billion USD), France ($296 billion USD), South Korea ($241 billion USD), Canada ($218 billion USD), Spain ($208 billion USD), and Brazil ($206 billion USD). There is also a general correlation between how much a country manufactures and its total GDP. Depending on the percentage of their total economy taken up by manufacturing, a country's economic and political leaders may wish to take steps to adjust accordingly. For instance, the USA has been losing substantial ground to China in recent decades, meaning that US political leaders have an interest in increasing the total percentage of the country's GDP dominated by manufacturing."

Oh, I suppose we could tell it to every elected official for the past 100 years or so, including especially the current misadminstration. A mess don't get this big overnight, but it does seem to get easier and easier to make it bigger and bigger.
