What's the best thing about living in the States?

how many trillions of dollars in debt are you guys? This is a serious question cause whenever I google it it gives different results. I was reading some mans post on a blog and he said that Chinas economy will crush you guys soon leaving your country in shambles.

it grows by the second

trillions upon trillions. i dont think anyone knows the exact figure.

the good news is, we as americans dont really care. we'll just make up our own baseless currency and keep it moving

will it affect our trade with other countries? sure

will it matter? not really since we are still spending trillions on military shit like aircraft carriers subs drones planes etc, and buying out whole nations rights to there resources

so we wont really need to trade, but countries will need to trade with us to get at some of the resources we are monopolising

china isnt dumb tho, they're working on gathering as much of these resources as well and its pretty even. so countries might be able to trade with china for those resources for cheaper

but really no ones money is backed by anything, so none of it matters

China cannot sustain its industries once its growth plateaus and will probably end up owing the world money

also that ^

but people dont realize that china's growth has already plateau'd

they take out contracts to build new shit all the time to beef up there statistics

im too dumb to explain it but vice did a documentary on it for HBO. they build major cities, and no one lives in them. they are just giant ghost towns, commissioned by the government to keep those stats up

Okay so Uh Oh your argument is that your government doesn't care about the money because of all the natural resources you have etc. My question now to you is, are you blind? Yes, your government has them, but you have nothing in terms of resources, its not like the country buys a diamond mine and says okay citizens today we are sharing them with everyone so that they may sustain their income. By your government being in debt it effects you directly and your income/quality of life.

i am just saying how i see it. i'm smart enough to know i don't know anything. but i know we are in control of crazy amounts of resources.

im not saying that the government will give all its citizens lithium to buy stuff with. our government will be trading this with other nations who need it, and will pay for it. lithium is just one example. oil another etc.

i can have negative money in my personal bank account, but a house full of gold. if all people can see is my bank account, does that make me poor?

as long as we have resources other nations want we will be fine. we produce enough of everything to be self sustaining, be it food, oil whatever. we will be fine. add on top of that all the resources and nations we indirectly control

the debt is meaningless. otherwise why does the government take no steps in paying it off?

if it was a problem it would be addressed. and they very well could be addressing it every time they buy another aircraft carrier, and more jets and more tanks and more subs etc

good point I see where you're coming from

lol Masaii do you know what resources are

Diamond mine was probably not the best example but you know what im getting at. Stop trying to draw attention away from the point I have raised.

Unrefined resources represent potential sources of income

The USA isn't scrambling atm, and that's mostly due to the fact that the rest of the worlds' economies are suffering in proportion or worse than ours

Now I'm sure that reads to you as stupidity. But in reality it is calmness

That may all be well and true but your unemployment rate is just under 8%. That is shocking for a country with your population. 2511200 People dont have jobs. Wow.

this dude posts a link with 1 paragraph 2 sentences long in it lol gtfo. Its not about averaging its currently (according to your link) at 5.7% and that makes up the junkie scum/houso faggots. They should incinerate them tbh.

the fact remains that your unemployment rate is high.

@uh oh the 2012 usa population on google was 314 million. But like you said there are alot more than that.

word i was more just referring to the unemployment rate, that 8 percent is only people on unemployment

not every person who is unemployed is on unemployment. so the number is way higher than what is reported

but word yo

america is beautiful, landscape wise. have just about every climate and terrain in the world
