<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Evom777, post: 1016307, member: 27123&quot;]Two years ago I would have agreed with You. Now however, there is more unrest with the U.S.`s debt holders. China has made comments about selling Our treasuries should We decide to further tax their imports. (As Geithner has hinted at recently) Japan has also expressed hesitancy regarding buying more of Our debt, as the dollar continues to slowly diminish. (Japan is hurting as well) </p><p><br /></p><p>I think the U.S. is slowly becoming a paper tiger in the global economy. Countries are no longer as dependent on the U.S. like they used to be. If it was found that there was not that much gold left in Fort Knox, I think the implications would be more of a &quot;reputation killer&quot; so to speak on a global scale. It would further deter other countries from taking on more of Our debt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
