2007 Inflation USA Debt and GDP fiscal path domestic produc

The $586 billion stimulus package announced by the Chinese government is mainly destined for infrastructure and real estate spending, and represents a huge nine per cent of GDP. By contrast the $700 billion US bank bailout is less than two per cent of GDP for the world’s biggest economy.

Well as I predicted, the chinese did not give their $ trillion reserve to G. Brown for the IMF. They spend it for themselves. In reality the buying power of the $586 bn, is in China worth round about "$ 5 trillion". Well thats comunism today, have a look to it Mr. bush from your economy wheelchair.

....the only thing wrong with this picture is it should be in the form of a hand holding American debentures . After all, that's what the Chinese will be pawning off to upgrade their infrastructure with. Thus weakening the American "Saw-dust-back". A true statement of Dr. Bu$h's legacy. Sorry George, but someone has to shoulder the burden, less we forget Cheyney.
