2008,’’ Finfacts. http://www.finfacts.ie/irishfinancenews/articlel1013947.shtml.<br />
Dr. Morici notes that interest payments on the accumulated debt now exceeds<br />
$2,000 per year for every working American and that, ‘‘In the first quarter, foreign<br />
governments loaned Americans $173.5 billion or 4.9 percent of GDP. That well exceeded<br />
net household borrowing to finance homes, cars, gasoline, and other consumer<br />
goods. The Chinese and other governments are essentially bankrolling U.S.<br />
consumers who, in turn, are mortgaging their children’s income.’’<br />
