Seriously dude the gig is up. An 800 billion$ trade deficit with the world is insanely bad for America.
If you believe that is healthy then you are a dummy.

Did you write this dreck in the article that nobody read?

Are there a lot of typos? You guys always have typos and bad grammar.

Actually, when you count our exports of services, the trade deficit is closer to 500 billion.

That means we have an investment surplus of about 500 billion, because the trade deficit is the mirror image of the investment surplus. It’s a matter of ironclad logic, which flows from the way national income statistics are conceptualized and compiled.
