The US pretty much gave up creating new money in the late 70s-early 80s and has relied on circulating disposable income ever since. Ask yourself when was the US Balance of Trade a major news item as in was back then?

What? Did you really say that? Google "quantitative easing".

You’re right about the balance of trade figures being suppressed. Only Trump talks about it.

On the 70’s the trade SURPLUS was report almost every night. Even with oil imports we STILL had a trade surplus in the 70’s.
