Here ya Sticky - but again, it's not about "your area" - the US is a big country and there are bigger and more relevant issues. The world's equity shot up - so what? My equity shot up millions over the last few years - that has nothing to do with national issues, the economy of where I currently reside, or much else.

Obviously the outcome of a "thriving economy" is the biggest national deficit ever, a need to constantly borrow from other nations at an unsustainable rate, have increased pressure from a weak dollar and never manage a trade surplus in over 30 years?? Sure, that is one "thriving economy".

BTW.. The answer is China - and several other Asian countries. They have "thriving economies" which supercede all western industrialized countries - not just the US. They will also be the biggest economies we have even seen.
