fyi...the Chinese FDI piece is just a note that many countries reply on the U.S. to uphold economic growth.  By no means could the Chinese realistically 'own' the U.S...that is a rediculous statement

You must be an idiot??!!  When the Federal Reserve pumps in new money to the U.S. Economy, that doesn't mean that we can cover our $85 BILLION deficit.  Instead, it means that your $1 today will only be worth $0.95 tomorrow...it's a measure known in the education field as CPI, or in Lehman's terms as Inflation.  Genera...more

I enjoy 'Shitonya', but that is pronounced '****-on-ya'.

Interesting...I searched another site to determine the total distance of the track and it states 1.16 miles.   Recalculating, I found the average MPH to be 43.052....or 69.285 KMH if you're overseas.
