THE BIGGEST EXPORTS FOR THE US...ARE SCRAP...PAPER METAL PLASTICS ETC...
BUT THE REALLY KEY BIG EXPORT WAS SCRAP PAPER FROM WALL STREET...SECURITIZED DEBT, MORTGAGES AND BONDS...BOTH JUNK AND US.
IE: "INVESTMENTS!"
THEREIN LIES THE REAL STORY OF THE TRADE DEFICIT INCREASE...
NO ONE IS BUYING OUR "JUNK PAPER!"
