Looked at Another Way: If the American Consumer....

...stops buying, then there's less reason to support "him."

**Most Central Banks are stuffed with more US currency they need. I would thnk that at some point they would like to exchange them for something worth while. Also I would think the rest of the world would start to resent supporting the US consumer.**

Yes. As I said if the consumer stops "performing" then why support him?
