Could it be that the whole thing about having the statistics look good and keeping the markets inflated, has to do with the fact that we are at war ?

Absolutely. War needs money a lot of money. American Superpower is overstretched and that is why it is going to go down the drain. Like all the Great Powers before it. Too bad. I like this country, despite that I am Canadian.

Check the book by Paul Kennedy " The rise and fall of the great powers: economic change and military conflict from 1500-2000" to see how it always ends.
