  I read the article in the UK Spectator and I'm really annoyed. 
  It gives the impression that everyone else in the world in holier than thou 
  and has no responsibilities in this WORLD economic implosion -- it's only 
  American greed. The sublime message was that America alone is the demon 
  because it worshiped the stock market. Well, how about you SLAWEKP, aren't you 
  following the stock markets? And how about all the other internationals that 
  are part of this list? Don't you guys and gal also have a stake in it? I'm 
  really getting sick and tired of people attempting to dump on my country. Ask 
  yourself, how did the American economy suck up vast resources from the rest of 
  the world to feed our capital markets? It was plain greed by everyone else 
  willing to contribute for greed, and we all share in this as human beings, 
  even you SLAWEKP. As for this recession, it's world-wide and not just here. As 
  for selling off much of our industries, the Japanese bought a lot before their 
  collapse in the '80s and then we bought most of it back at fire sale prices, 
  and maybe the same will happen again. As for China having an asian market to 
  buffer its economy, bunk! Most of their trade is with the US. If we stop 
  buying the junk they produce by slave labor, you'll see what over capacity 
  really is. China will have the same over capacity as all that unlit fiber the 
  article talked about. Also, the article subtly tends to brag about the other 
  regional economies, the EU not mentioned, but implied. Well, between North and 
  South America, we have a pretty damned good infrastructure, as well. America 
  has been the world's energizer battery and all that prevails, lately, is a 
  gleam in some eyes that we appear to be stumbling and in the worst case 
  there's outright jealousy and hostility, as we've seen with the WTC attack. 
  The more I read dribble like that in the UK Spectator, the more I become an 
  American that would be very happy to return to isolationism -- screw the rest 
  of the world. As all humans are greedy, they are also hypocrites. I'm fully 
  coming to understand Caesar's remark: "et tu Brutus!"
