You make a very good argument All4One. I really can't believe anything that's coming out of the US, I just don't buy the fact that their economy has recovered and going gang busters (and the US stockmarket rising to all new record highs is NOT a true indicator).
What about the US debt >> over 17 TRILLION DOLLARS.....did you know that Lego (toy company from Denmark) has been making blocks / bricks since 1932, and they have made over 600 billion pieces in total, nowhere near 1 trillion and that's in 82 years!
