Everything from cash to trade to defense to who knows. And we'd do it for the reasons I explained: If history repeats America is the new UK (or worse) and China is the new USA. And we all get used to Chinese capitalism. The bolder action for us is the big bet. Given that only the US and China are large enough to re-capitalize the World we take advantage of Chinese risk aversion (see recent Chinese comments) to get the jump and offer to recapitalize Europe. Keep in mind that the US has trillions on the side lines. Your banker buddy is proof of that. So the only question is, from a policy perspective, do we wilt and go into protectionism or do we take a swing from the back foot? That swing will mean a lot of US taxpayer money going to Europe. You got the cajones for that? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:293464 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
