What does bankruptcy mean on a national level? That there's no money in the bank? Can you show me that money they talk of? Can the government withdraw that out of the national bank? It's all relative, it's all an instrument to measure productivity at that level. It takes on a completely different meaning. I think you're listening to the media far too much.
With Obama in power I can see green energy being the next big investment. The fact he mentioned it in the inauguration means a lot. But, even that said, basic human consumption will continue, people will die, people will be born, life goes on and so does human movement. People want to get around and always will.
Like I said to you, chill out a little!
