Did The Bruce Fund go belly up?

Flumper Barflusterbutt · 02-28-2007, 12:30 AM

Looks as though the crash (400 points) is due to a crash in China's Shanghai Exchange (down 9%). Blamed on fuel prices and weak economy outlook.

Fucking gooks.

pffft. Lots of Dems in China, I guess.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks extended their slide on Tuesday, sending the Dow Jones industrial average down more than 500 points as China's equity market sell-off fanned concerns about equity valuations there and some data indicated U.S. economic growth may slow.

Did you know that the national debt, as a percentage of the GDP, was higher in 1995 than it is now?

How much more have we borrowed from china these last 6 years compared to '95?Thats what were talking about.

Well, I can't find a breakdown of year to year, but right now they hold about 6% of our national debt. The Japanese have more than that, but they always have.

Its really not suprising, since the Chinese economy has been on a blazing growth spurt the past few years. They have bought a lot of US treasuries. Which isn't exactly the same thing as Bush "borrowing" from them.

So, I don't know what percentage they had in '95, but right now they have about 6%.

BIRD33 · 02-28-2007, 01:39 AM

Smart to borrow that much from a country that spies against us and has a faulty banking system?

Flumper Barflusterbutt · 02-28-2007, 01:41 AM

I guess Bush could have tried to pass some kind of law that says Chinese people can't buy US treasuries, but I'm not sure how he could have done that.

But, if you thinking that Bush personally went over there and begged them to buy US Treasuries so that his crazy economy could flourish helps you sleep better in your "I HATE BUSH" footie pajamas, then okay.

What? We had a surplus? Are you fucking crazy?

The national debt was higher under Clinton than any President before him. It rose steadily each year he was in office. You have no fucking clue what the fuck you are talking about.
