>8 trillion dollars – just a number with a lot of zeros at the end! It seems to grow. How do we finance our war on terrorism with Afghanistan and Iraq? Easy just let investors from other countries buy us. China is our greatest source of investment and tenth on the list is Mexico. It would seem that we are not too pushy when it comes to flexing our muscles to let some nations know who is the boss! We can be had for a price!

I remember a few years ago the fear was that Arab oil wealth would end up owning the US then that Japan would end up owning the US. Next one up China or Russia. What better way to sell a newspaper or get people to watch your channel than scaring the c__p out of them.
