to any informed, thinking person.
Europe had to be bailed out of the last financial crisis by the US (1) in a massive way, and they're worse off financially now than they were before the last crisis hit.
Meantime, the US is FAR worse off than they were then and the bubble is far larger. The US government purchased all of the toxic assets, inflated the money supply far beyond anything ever seen before.
We are currently in the bubble of all bubbles and all of the western economies are in record debt.
The world economy is a disaster waiting to happen.
