Maher: To me I think, from a layman’s point of view for the last 20-30 years, America doesn’t make anything. We used to manufacture stuff, cars and stuff. Arabs and Colombians drill oil, Indians make code for computers. China makes DVD’s – they make them out of pigshit and mercury – but they make something. Y’know what America makes? Debt. The Financial Services industry just makes debt, it’s really pushing money around on computers screens.<\/p>\n

Krugman: Well, your right, and in way we actually do have fair trade with China. They sell us poisoned toys and tainted sea food and we sell them fraudulent securities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
