And no Sushisake...
This couldn't be much further from the truth.
"The tightening of credit facilities in the U.S. put a quick stop to U.S. growth which caused a domino effect to ripple overseas, in particular when BoA, Lehrman Bros, etc. hit the wall."
French bank giant BNP Paribas was the first bank to shut down credit facilities months before any American bank did. Try reading Nobel prize winner Paul Krugman's book "Depression Economics" before you embarrass yerself any further.

"I am still waiting to find out where the mouthy conservatives got their economics degrees from. They would rather listen to Rush and his emissaries. Rush flunked out of college."
Yet Rush has become one of the most popular and powerful radio figures in the USA making tons of moolah in the process. And GoodDonkey ? Stuck here bleating at the masses at Japantoday... you must be proud.

Looks as if the US gov will stop at nothing to get their hands on another of the big three. The reason is simple, both GM and Chrysler are about to turn the auto industry on its head with a complete new line of EV's. Obama ain't dumb, he knows a quality business venture when he sees one. Too bad JT has spent so much print space criticizing both GM and Chrysler, they are about to dominate the world market, for GM... Again !

"the primary reason that Canada is the US's #1 trade partner is becuase Canada is the US's #1 supplier of Oil."
Ah yes, Americas good friend to the north, Canada. Lemme see, don't the Americans have an 80 billion dollar trade defecit with them ? And oil ? Wasn't the dramatic increase in oil prices the main trigger for the global economic crisis ? Gee thanks Canada, with friends like you...
As you can see good jorb, "Bout time the US instituted a "buy American" clause in the nation. Well done Barrack Hussein Obama !"
