your math is wrong the usa financing needs are not really about financing imports the usa cannot exist as is without financing, either from external or internal sources the usa has effectively nil internal sources left the usa needs continuous transfusion, either by way of secret weapon or from foreigners the disease is well advanced it is just math.

same logic for team japan, between just transfer payments and debt service, japan is already at deficit, never mind education, healthcare, defense, and whatever else japan, starting this year, is tapped out in so far as true incremental savings go, must start to drawdown its external investment (how do you do that with bricks and cement?), or accept china jgb purchase and bitch a lot, or print and march bravely towards utter destruction of its middle class majority it is also just math. we are past an inflection point and in very much uncharted paper so, again, kyrosl, i implore you to save yours and yourself do something but do not argue with the math we can fuss over the numbers later
