makes no sense, without giving figures on 1. trade imbalance 2. national debt 3. Yoy inflation etc etc...

just for reference, OTC trading before the greatest financial crash was 35 times the size of US banks!

in other words, there were other 35 sub economic inside the USA which were off the books!

but that did not end well!

so this analysis is incomplete!

This is a measure of US household and nonprofit organizations net worth and government debt doesn’t factor in here.

Americans are absurdly wealthy and our disposable incomes allow us to drive high economic output.

wealthy, of course!

not without debt (or high inflation!), that is questionable!
