I'm sorry. I made a mistake; it's not $3 million a day, but actually $3 BILLION per office day.
To reply on this; it's not nations as a whole lending money, for the most part it's indepentent investors seeing a great opportuniry in some idea and funding this. Wether it's America-based or not. Fact is, Americans are living above their stand. The US goverment is giving out fundings and subsidies they cannot afford. In stead of paying it off taxes, they pay off borrowed money, because the taxes are insufficient. Yet on the other hand, taxes have been LOWERED!
So it's hardly the investors fault for investing in a worthwhile idea. Neither is it the fault of the person borrowing the money to fund the project. It's just a government with too much power doing desperate things. You think they don't know this? America is ill, and there most likely isn't a cure.
Actually, the dollar is litarally killing the world economy. It is, in a way, dying, an similar process as the German Mark underwent. All we have to wait for is a large selling of dollars on stock exchanges around the globe 'triggering' the downfall. After all, you Americans are borrowing $3 mil. a DAY of the rest of the world...
So yes, the dollar WILL be the new dollar, for a while. And after that, the economy is going to shift to the East.
Better repeal the laws against selling alcohol and tobacco to kids too then. Oh, and let them gamble, let people fuck them, etc. After all, why should the government pass laws when you should be doing your job as a parent to keep them away from these things?
And there you are wrong. Smoking, gambling and other such things are prohibited for kids not to raise them right, but to prevent them for doing stupid things. They aren't grown yet, after all, and can't make the right decisions yet.
Smoking has been proven to be bad for your health. Gambling has been proven to be bad for your wallet (and addicting). Until violent games or other violent or sexually exlicit media have been *proven* to cause violence, there is no reason to bad sales to minors. And no, it has *not* been proven. And I think it cannot be proven, either. Just because Johnny beat Jacky and Johnny played violent videogame, doesn't mean the game is to blame...
