Oh, you might also be interested in knowing that US export
prices (all) grew by 1.2% over the latest 3 months reported
(1.8% ttm) and agricultural export prices rose by 12.8%
over the trailing 12 months after gaining 9.6% the year
before, all while the dollar was experiencing its "first demise".

PS: You still haven't explained how a trade deficit
equates to indebtedness.
