Re: Where do we Take it from Here?
Is there some reason that everyone should share the global debt evenly?

Re: Where do we Take it from Here?
Sorry but that does not seem like much of a reason for folk to pay off your debts.

Is there some reason you can give for someone in Thailand to assume your debts?

Re: Where do we Take it from Here?
What advantage does the US have?

Negotiation is a two way endeavor; what do we offer the other parties?

Re: Consume less but let everyone work together
Invite their grocery store checkers over here to teach us how to have cheaper supermarkets. Since they wont demand $18.00 an hour salaries nor will the shopping bills be as high. In other words, we need educated immigrants to serve our aging population. It will be win/win. We will pay them, they will have plenty of work.
