Jerry, what concerns me most about the US economy is that we're currently about 8 trillion dollars in debt with that debt growing at a rate of over 1 billion dollars every day. Just seems like a house of cards that could be blown over by any number of possible events, like the world losing confidence in the dollar and switching over to the euro, or foreign countries not buying our debt obligations anymore.
