but in the long run we are all dead as keynes said. Economics you always have to go slow. Yes the world needs more consumers and the US needs to save more and spend less but right now the fate of the world rests on the US, albeit the last few years have not worked out as planned. There is no danish army to speak of and the israelis are probably more potent than any euro country and you folks have fifth columns in your countries that you alluded to earlier. So you might need Uncle sam one day leon because he has the fire power. So if the US isnt the sole eco driver in the future, euros need to pick it up--same with military. I am trying to be nice with you Leon. I have enough folks i am fighting with these days on both right and left.

By the way dow at 13,100. The US economy has done well in spite of left wing carping from folks like Krugman. Its very important to differntiate between short term and long term when discussing the economy. Those tax cuts were the key to US prosperity in post 9/11 world. Without that prosperity the world would be in recession today or worse. Long term, debt is a problem for the US as well as lack of savings, health care, energy, pensions and SS. The list goes on and on but one should never panic and do draconian things that destroy the US in the short run. Evolution rather than revolution when talking economics. And i charge you with the responsibility of getting that danish army together so US wont have to be the chief internvener and military force. And Leon when i talk about the danish, i am not talking about folks in uniform giving out "danish and coffee". I am talking about mean danes with guns prepared to fight for right if called upon.
