My guess it would be cause China holds so much of our debt. Its sad to see the United States being held captive by our debt. Down the road we will all be working for 50 cents a day and exporting pieces of cheap crap to China.

I believe it goes further back than that..<br />
Remember Ross Perot speaking about that big sucking sound? That was before Bush. Now we are seeing the fallout. The Chinese can pretty much call the shots just like most bankers can with most businesses. Nothing, including our oil and gas industries, are exempt so long as we are dependent upon China to keep our government subsidized with some kind of cash flow. Perhaps there is more to it than we are allowed to know why our Natural Gas is not being…

Perhaps there is more to it than we are allowed to know why our Natural Gas is not being promoted as it should. Can we be sure who really is calling the shots any more? I doubt if it would make much of a difference who our president was.. Without the Chinese, our government would have to compete with all of us for funds. What would the interest rates look like if that happened? This is not political, it's reality!

Or has the game already been rigged and all this is just for show?

The way I think of it, at this point in the game we're sitting here with a pair of deuces, maybe 2 pair of something. Looks like they've got the royal flush and most everyone's chips. Are we going to up the ante and throw in the farm, fold with the few chips we have left and hope for a better hand and turn around in the game, or cash out never hoping to recoup? Everyone makes a different call in the end.<br />
<br />
Kinda like the end of that LSU game yesterday. :-P<br />
<br />
thanks :0)

"Many observers are asking whether U.S. indebtedness to foreigners might pose any subtle hidden threats to the U.S. economy or even to U.S. national security. <b>With China alone holding $1.2 trillion in reserve assets</b> and foreigners collectively holding more than twice that in U.S. Treasury securities, <b>is there any risk that the United States might be subject to economic blackmail?"</b><br />
<br />
Rogoff answers ...<br />
<br />
"<b>Doomsday scenarios, while theoretically possible, <u>seem remote</u></b>. However, although these extreme risks are remote, the United States massive dependence on foreign borrowing remains an important vulnerability."<br />

Spin it how you want. Obama cannot bring himself to promote natural gas because his party is so opposed to "Big Oil" companies. It would be like admitting that abortion takes a human life, or lowering taxes stimulates the economy, or that you can't have the universal health care plan without raising taxes on those who make less than $250k per year.
