USA tops the list of GDP/PPP per capita, so I guess it needs to become extremely bad before life is bad :-) But the different between GDP/Nominal and GDP/PPP is becoming worse, and I guess this is one of the main problems. As USAs share of the world GDP/Nominal decreases, so does USAs influence. Local companies here say, that even if USA goes into recession, it's a bad thing, but it doesn't matter a lot. To some companies it does, of course (Bang & Olufsen).

Anyway, USA is the only top 10 GDP per capita country, that doesn't have abundance of oil and doesn't have a high level of tax. I wonder if you need to raise taxes in order to raise GDP/Nominal above a certain level?
