>>budgetary balance<< This appears to be a very temporary situation to me which is tied to current or even last quarters increased profitability. Do you think it is a long lasting phenomena? >>a growth spurt then Europe will suck in imports from the US so that will help our balance<< Europe has very high unemployment right now, very high taxes. Do you think that monetary union -- i.e. reducing each countries flexibility in terms of monetary policy is really going to increase consumption enough to have a material impact on our exports? Couple of more questions: 1) Aren't capital flows equivalent to the strength of the currency itself -- aren't we talking about the same thing? 2) Interesting point about services. Aren't these reflected in GDP as well? If so, how large are they as a percentage as opposed to goods? Appreciate your discussion. Thanks in advance.
