When times are tough, one thing that tends to raise the spirits is knowing that somebody else has it worse. And as wretched as the U.S. economy seems, it's not as bad as in other regions.

Funny, isn't it, how these articles weren't around when the LSM were tearing Bush a new a-hole?

Elbonia?

If these projections come true, it means the United States, despite its overspent consumers, wrecked banks, and insolvent automakers, will be leading the world economy out of recession

There is a pony in there somewhere. The US is the engine of the global economy. No one can lead us out of the global recession except us, but Obama's policies make it very difficult to do so. He has made things worse.

Yep. All those countries worse than us are socialist, meanwhile Obama is working towards making us more like them (actually worse).

[PugetSoundSoldier]

Good to see that Zimbabwe isn't on the list. After all, everyone there is a TRILLIONAIRE!

All the Obamassiah has to do is print 300 million of these notes, give one to each person in the US and - BAM! Depression over - we're all multi-trillionaires!
