And that was what no one understood as they were shipping factories, jobs and industry to a back water where they could pay the worked 20% what US workers earned. What they did not realise was if you keep shipping factories, jobs and industry you also export wealth. In the end you end up with a country that thinks it's the top dog but has to lend money in trillions to keep it afloat.

Part of the problem is the US thinks it's bigger than it is. If it was as big as some thought it would not be in the debt it's in.
