So is the US The Federal Reserve Bank bankrupt?

Perhaps. They are issuing lots of new fiat money to the US and other
governments as no one is lending them money any more. Keep crating
money until it breaks and then declare bankruptcy on a world wide scale.

Which is the real reason behind government rant on currency, they want
the Chinese to eat the depreciation of US debt.

Suckers play by democrat debtors in denial.

Boats are only going to get cheaper.

Wait...we're supposed to give credence to an anonymous economic
prognosticating crackpot like you, a self-described "offshore"
manufacturer of equally anonymous goods?

Funny, going to buy a TV shortly, from one of those "offshore"
manufacturers of equally anonymous goods because here in North America,
we don't even make them let alone cheaply and reliably. Nobody wants to
work any more, just finance their lifestyle with debt.

As I said, it can't go bankrupt.

It would certainly hurt them bad but it would kill us. The Chinese
expect tanks in the street to kick them back into the fold but we
would not survive as a country if it happens here.

No, actually, the reverse is true. It would hurt us and wipe them out.

That is the same kind of logic that said Japan would never attack
Pearl Harbor.

Actually, there's some dispute about us knowing or not knowing about the
impending attack.

Short term money loss is not the only thing some countries think
about, even if that is such a strange concept to us.

We've had a very stable, long-term monetary policy in the US up until
recently... about the time of Reagan. Between the Depression and then, we
had recessions but nothing severe. Then, the regs got removed and/or gutted.
We see the result. We need to learn from our mistakes and reinstitute the
policies that stabilized our economy.

China is in better shape to come out of a global depression than we
are and they will own the world when they do.

No they aren't. They're a much more rigid society. Millions would die if
their economy went bust.

The rich people here will be fine, they already operate quite well in
the global economy. It will be your middle class that becomes serfs in
a neo-colonial America growing food, cutting wood and mining
materials for China.
To some extent we already are.

The rich people are usually fine. So what. The middle class would be hurt
but would recover.

This is yet again a case of Chicken Little (no offense intended).

Ah the old "FDR caused the attack to get us in the war" theory.
That usually comes from right wingers. I'm surprised.

Well, it's certainly true that FDR knew that we would be drawn into war in
Europe.

The issue is not monetary policy, it is a decline in our capacity to
produce things we can sell the world. These days most of our exports
to China are raw materials. We sell them scrap iron and they sell us
consumer goods. The real profit is in the manufacturing, not
collecting and shipping scrap iron.

Actually, the situation with China is improving...

http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/...5700.html#1990

Which isn't something I really considered. Look at the timeline...


China is in better shape to come out of a global depression than we
are and they will own the world when they do.

No they aren't. They're a much more rigid society. Millions would die if
their economy went bust.

They have 1.3 billion, they can afford to lose a few million but it is
unlikely it would be that bad. A global depression and fionancial
collapse could set us back over 100 years. For most of China it would
just set them back a decade or so and they are better equipped to
recover.

Wow... you're a great humanitarian! A few million here and there... after a
while it becomes a bad thing I guess... with apologies to Everett Dirksen.

The rich people here will be fine, they already operate quite well in
the global economy. It will be your middle class that becomes serfs in
a neo-colonial America growing food, cutting wood and mining
materials for China.

The rich people are usually fine. So what. The middle class would be hurt
but would recover.

Recover doing what? This isn't 1929. Our problem is not excess
capacity with no place to sell it. We don't have the ability to
produce much. We sold our factories to Mexico and China.

The facts just don't support this statement.

In the 90s.we thought we would dominate the world in the internet
business but we found out there is really not much employment there.
One guy sitting at a PC arranging drop shipments from Asia is not as
much of an employer as a whole brick and mortar store chain, then they
figured out the guy on the PC could be overseas too. (Clinton's
recession)
In the 2000s we filled that gap building houses, until the market was
so flooded that we may not work through the inventory for years to
come. (the current recession)
Now we are just staring into the hole that used to be American
industry and wondering what is next?

This is yet again a case of Chicken Little (no offense intended).

OK everything is fine, thanks, now I know my kids will be OK.

Economies was and wane. There are plenty of things we export.

so your argument is that china will take a trillion dollar loss? has
that ever happened? all you have to do is point out an event in
history and you'll have an argument

we're in such a depression now, remember. they aren't dumping
anything. so your experiment doesnt work

they already are becoming serfs. they just dont realize it. a recent
study shows that americans have NO idea how skewed income and wealth
are in this country. and the right is certainly helping to keep this a
secret
