It's not wrong for you to feel that way considering their attitude toward the US lately. But, consider this: If Europe is going into an economic tailspin, and the non-Western parts of the world have been in deep economic trouble for several years, that leaves us alone on the slippery edge of an economic cliff. It's pretty much inevitable that we will go down, too.

You are so right, except that we won't fall on our own. The EU will grab on to our legs and pull us down with them. I can almost hear the screams for help now.... America!, America!, You have to help us..........

Not necessarily. We are in a better position to recover provided we keep elimnating regulation and promoting economic freedom.
