The US should dump the failed Chicago-Austrian system of free trade, deregulation, and privatization, and return to the classic American System of political economy, meaning an updated New Deal. No Keynesians, Austrians, Chicago boys, or Marxists need apply. RT panel with Pepe Escobar, Michael Hudson, and Webster Tarpley.

Jim Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Fund says that US citizens should save and invest their money as their Chinese counter parts have. The Chinese are saving and investing an average of 35% of their income, taking an age old US principle and using it to their advantage.

As the US financial crisis continues, the G20 has started to take place in South Korea. Going into the meetings the US hopes to "rebalance" the world's economies. Can US treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner do anything substantial at the G20 meetings? Peter Schiff from Euro Pacific Capital says for the US to continue its failed policy and blame other countries for what is an American problem makes no sense.

It seems that the US has fallen from grace as it lags behind in these world rankings, demonstrating that the US is crumbling. Author and activist David Swanson says that the United States' "super power" status is in jeopardy when compared to the European Union, which is bigger and stronger than the US.

The US has long prided itself on being an exceptional nation, a City Upon Hill and a beacon of democracy and progress the world over. Yet in education, healthcare and finance, the US is falling behind other developed and developing nations. Last week the US slipped to 49th place in terms of life expectancy, and ranks dead last among developed nations in terms of child well-being. Long dedicated to cultivating an educated, highly skilled workforce, the US is now behind Russia and South Korea in the number of citizens with Bachelor's degrees. So can the empire simply be in the eye of the beholder, or do Americans need to confront the harsh statistics about their lone superpower.

"US will lose economic war"


I don't think so. The Chinese emergence economically is still based on a shaky foundation of totalitarian government, socialism, and slave / virtual slave labor. Their success is export-dependent, and ultimately will depend on quality as well as quantity. We have first hand evidence that quality control is not a primary part of Chinese manufacturing. I believe our economic foundation is sound; what is shaky is the current administration's economic and foreign policies. That is about to change dramatically, I hope, on Nov 2.

I remember everyone in a panic a few years ago over the Japanese surging economy. Some feared Japan would ultimately own the state of Hawaii. It did not happen. Japan's economy dipped into a 10 year recession, and many of the US properties the Japanese purchased were unloaded.[/quote]
