You can't make this shit up
On bubblevison today, or CNBC if you prefer, they were discussing the recent trade deficit numbers, which are, to put it bluntly, Gi-nourmous.
These dudes they had on, I can't remember what their names were and they aren't worth remembering anyways, described American consumption as being "a sacrifice," and American consumers as "bearing the brunt of world consumption," and of having an "obligation to consume."
That's priceless. Its like the 11th commandment. Thou shalt buy.
Brutal.
