Americans figuring out they've been had

In the business world, what has happened to the United States is called a hostile takeover.

Of course this is nonsense, but if it were true, "And about time, too" would be the view of the rest of the world.

That must be why the stock market has gone up so much in the last 4 years. All those people betting the economy will crash and their stocks will be worthless.

You must be poised to make a killing gunga with shorting the US economy.
