(1) we don't have any problems selling our debt

And our enemies have no trouble buying it......

(2) we aren't actually printing money; and

That's soooo 20th Century. Computers are much faster than printing presses......

(3) the United States is a highly productive economy that is nothing like bombed-out Budapest.

We have a defacto SERVICE Economy now, need nails done? No problemo. Need nails? Get them from CHINA........................
