The GDP of Japan is larger now than ever before. How would you rate the US economy on that metric? The Nasdaq is down 61% from its high five years ago. Mike MU-2

Oh, and what DO they measure? The GDP of Japan is larger now than ever before. Got some NET numbers? How would you rate the US economy on that metric? I'd say it's pretty ****ty, regardless of what the Repubs say. The Nasdaq is down 61% from its high five years ago. Yup and many are STILL paying the price. I know several engineers that are making 1/4th what they were five years ago. Seems the only thing that grown is government.

Seems the only thing that grown is government. and how do you pay for government by taxes unless you borrow billions and let the kids pay it off in taxes in the future. And in some bizarre way we come right back to the point of this thread. The $7.50 /gal avgas is due to taxes. The $3.50 /gal avgas is due to little tax. What do you think the level of tax will be in the future to pay for all the borrowing going on today to pay for today's government. I look at the difference as one of timing. Perhaps in 20 years the US will be paying $30 / gal for AVGAS when the Europeans are paying $15/gal. Either that or the US will nuke everyone it owes money to to try and cancel its debt.
