In 2010, John Kitchen of the US Treasury and Menzie Chinn of the University of Wisconsin published a study entitled:
By 2020, Kitchen and Chinn project the amount of US Treasury
debt that foreign governments will have to buy in order to finance our
spending and debt will have to rise to about 19 percent of the rest of
the world’s GDP, which they say is . . . do-able . . . BUT TOTALLY NEVER GONNA HAPPEN UNREALISTIC.
Whether the rest of the world will want to do it is another matter. A future that presumes the rest of the planet will sink a fifth of its GDP into U.S. Treasuries is no future at all.
Progs always say that we are 5% of the world’s population, but use
25% of the planet’s resources, which, according to them, is a very bad,
racist, oppressive, selfish, and mean thing to do.
Evidently, being 5% of the world’s population and expecting the
equivalent of the Coolies to build our modern-day railroads, which are
known as Obamacare, Social Security, Medicare, free college, subsidised
housing, cradle-to-grave welfare, etc., by demanding that the rest of
the world spend 19% OF THE GLOBAL GDP EVERY YEAR ON US TREASURIES
beginning in 2020 while we sit on our couches eating Twinkies watching
American Idol while our solar-panel-generated air conditioners are
blasting away because “we are so trying to save the planet, man” is
perfectly acceptable.
