DrGuntram,You are the who seems to be myopic. Explain how America can maintain itself borrowing money from foreign countries to buy the consumer good it no longer can produce using it's own resources.

Seems to me that YOU need to use the dictionary. You switch between mypotic and myoptic... or is it actually spelled: myopic?... and thanks for the thumbs down, I so deserved the gratuitous nod. Keep up the good work sparky!
