Yeah, Canada is in the Blue because we're largely resource based. The U.S. is dead last because They're the worlds largest economy buying most of their manufactured goods from China and Mexico and their resources from us.

That said, the higher dollar has really hit our exports and increased our imports. Our account balance was over 30 billion a very short time ago.



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

US is dead last, we can blame China.




Nintendo still doomed?
Feel free to add me on 3DS or Switch! (PM me if you do ^-^)

I think most of the money, US borrowed from China. Perhaps, at some point, China can live off the interests.



Theoretically the country with the best balance should have the highest profit margin... and those in a deficit should be broke off their rocker. So why is it that the states keeps spending?



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

Russia! ))
