"Imagine how bad things would be if the global economy was in the toilet." We may drag it in there yet Ted. These things sometimes go into a death spiral. Certainly China's economy will be affected. I am not so sure. I have a feeling the rest of the world is simply passing us by. Like I said to John, if we go into a recession, we will still keep buying stuff...maybe not as much.....but probably the rest of the world won't be as affected as we think. I think they may have reached a critical mass that reduces their dependence on the US.
