Thank you for that it was a real eye opener. |

You (we) cant keep going on importing stuff unless we sell more. What did surpsie me was that Australia is below us with their minerals boom you would think they would be miles in credit.

And yes, I know Russia and China were not WW2 enemies but they quickly became so. |

| 593775 | 2007-09-21 21:45:00 | I'm surprise United states is last.They are the most powerful country after allIf you look at it per capita, New Zealand and the US are very similar. I heard a financier state on steam wireless that if China called up all it is owed by the US of A they would be bankrupted. They would be very stupid to do that though, China's economy survives because they, and other developing nations, provide cheap finance to Western countries so they can afford to buy their goods. |

Bit like NZ under Muldoon RIP Ken If they did that, then you could kiss China good bye as well. Though in such a case, the EU, Japan and India could potentially bail the USA out. I mean no country wants to lose its biggest trading partner especially after Bush leaves. |
