yay more people unemployed, just what the USA needs. Oh well, economic disaster is imminent.

Like it isn't already happening for the US.

No natural resources, no major maufacturing presence and top class engineers and sciencists are being pumped out of US/UK/AUS/European Univerisitys and shipped back to Asia, having local students miss out in the thousands. An economy that relies entirely on Serivices is a disaster waiting to happen. Luckly being Australian we have mining to support us. If we didn't have that we would be in an hole like you americans.

did you just say the US has no natural resources?


Reading this makes me want to play as the Americans in the game Civ5

America may very well be the most resource rich nation/region in the entire world.

whats stupid is that we dont even use it. we should be energy independent


If it's cheaper to import, why force higher prices on everybody, for the sake of being independant? Remember, the USA may be dependant on foreign nations for oil... but those nations are also dependant on the USA for the oil money.
