Even allowing that other countries are bad, the amount of favoritism in who gets bailed out, who gets government "investment," that MF Global customers have their money stolen in plain view of regulators, that we have to change the accounting rules or Wall Street would have imploded three years ago does make us Awesome. We are simply "Less Bad" on some of these things.

We are WAY less bad. Once we work through this necessary deleveraging we will boom again, if we avoid being taken over by Socialists in the meantime.
