I didn’t realize Germany placed itself to be completely dependent on Russia for its energy...

@GardenSage what do you want to say with this picture? I don't get it... I tired to point to the fact that US biggest foreign creditor is China. That's all. It holds more than one fifth of US foreign debts. Fortunately US is financed mainly from its internal market, but this doesn't mean, that it's not a problem, or not risky to have such a creditor like China...

@SW-User I agree... the point is the USA is fighting to remove itself from that burden, at the strange dismay of liberals and Germany isn’t.

THATS the hypocrisy

Also cnn is a bunch of liars

@GardenSage [quote]selling debt to China is a bad thing. To stop doing it, we need to stop having deficits that hemorrhages USA tax dollars[/quote] [quote]I agree... the point is the USA is fighting to remove itself from that burden, at the strange dismay of liberals and Germany isn’t.[/quote] What exactly are we doing to remove ourselves from this burden? We keep running deficits even in solid economic weather, and nobody is doing anything about that at all. Hell, the recent tax cut made the situation worse.

@questionWeaver Trump pointed out the stupidity of this to merkle yesterday in a rather nice but firm way. He suggested they buy their oil from us instead of Russia. And that earned him a sharp rebuke from the left wing media for trying to cripple Russia's economy. Yep, all day long they talked about how he was putin's agent and trying to cripple their economy is the proof. You can't make this up.

@ButterFly2023 ... How?
