The Wars in the Middle East generate huge debt that drives the American economy. Having a military to the police and rage war on every nation at the drop of a hat does not come cheap. American tax payers pay for it and the American elites make the most out of it.
It was the US Imperialists who caused the GFC in the first place by lax regulation of financial institutions by corrupt bankers, a greedy Wall St. and CDO's being sold off around the World causing huge problems for all countries, they cannot blame Beijing for their financial predicament. Americans live on debt, Chinese save, it is as simple as that. If USA stopped going to war and destabilising other countries to put their preferred dictator in place, they could save a heaps but their arnament manufacturers wouldn't be happy no doubt. America kills people for oil in overseas countries to maintain its debt based consumption economy.
Increase debt leads to ongoing booms in asset values and drives the American consumption economy. Perpetual wars increase debt and booms asset markets which benefit the Anarcho-Capitalists at the expense of the average man.
Why should young men fight and die in unjust wars to benefit rich elites? It is the American way.
