You are just plain wrong. Did Obama tell you that. The fact is, the U.S. is in a better position to outlast the recession/depression than China. China will be screwed by any downturn in our economy, plus they are carrying trillions of dollars. You may not like that fact, but it's true.
the U.S. had accumulated 2 centuries of wealth, unlimited natural resources, etc. so it shouldn't have to borrow $1 trillion per year and about to go bankrupt with 120 trillion $ in unfunded liabilities. Any of you who think that all that and more means the U.S is above anyone well I know what your agenda is (pro Obama). The U.S is worse off than Europe , China etc as the unfunded liabilities , debt etc. greater.
