We sell them movies, music, television shows, telecom equipment...

We sell them mostly (1) shares in companies, (2) real estate and (3) fed bonds.

Now GST is trying to argue that sooner rather than later we will run out of land and companies to sell them.

However this is not necessarily the case....

We sell that stuff and but then come up $400 billion short on the CURRENT ACCOUNT and sell ASSETS worth $400 billion to balance our books. You really do not seem to get this. BTW, I don't care much about this at the moment, it is you who raised the issue at this point.
