	Speech: Japan and the United States in the World Economy
		Hence the course of economic relations between the United States and Japan plays a critical role in the world economy as well as a central role in overall relations between the two countries.
		There are enormous risks to the world economy as long as Asia festers and the United States correctly sees Japanese recovery as a necessary component of resolving that key problem.
		To be sure, in light of the strong performance of the American economy, there have been short-run benefits to the United States from the sharp rise in the value of the dollar and the expansion of our trade deficit.

	United States Economy - A Brief History
		The United States posted trade deficits in seven of the 10 years of the 1970s, and the trade deficit swelled throughout the 1980s.
		In the United States, meanwhile, "corporate raiders" bought various corporations whose stock prices were depressed and then restructured them, either by selling off some of their operations or by dismantling them piece by piece.
		Japan's economy, often considered a model by Americans in the 1980s, fell into a prolonged recession -- a development that led many economists to conclude that the more flexible, less planned, and more competitive American approach was, in fact, a better strategy for economic growth in the new, globally-integrated environment.

	Paper: The Resurgent Japanese Economy and a Japan–United States Free Trade Agreement
		China has bypassed Japan (and the United States) as the main trading partner of virtually every country in the region and has clearly become its growth locomotive, accounting for almost one quarter of the increase in total world trade in 2003 and passing Japan as the world’s third largest importer.
		Now that both the US and Japanese economies are growing robustly, and the exchange rate between their currencies is nearing equilibrium, it is time for the two countries to return to a positive agenda to strengthen their economic (and indeed their overall) relationship.
		Hence there is a strong case for Japan and the United States, as they pursue their numerous bilateral FTAs with other countries, to anticipate these developments and to avoid the increasingly serious frictions that will otherwise affect their relationship, by launching a bilateral FTA negotiation themselves.

		The United States is the richest country but we still have the second highest percentage of children in poverty.
		Another thing is that as long as you have an economy that is stratified, you will have "child poverty." You could live in a country where your family makes one million dollars a day, but if the average household income is two million dollars a day, you live in poverty.

	Economy of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since the early 1980s, the United States has transformed from being the world's largest creditor to having a substantial current account deficit and a national debt, which is now approximately 64% of the GDP and the highest since the 1950s.
		The economy remained stable until the 1970s, when the U.S. suffered stagflation.
		Using radically different definitions, two major groups of advocates have claimed variously that (a) the United States has eliminated poverty over the last century[10]; or (b) it has such a severe poverty crisis that it ought to devote significantly more resources to the problem.

	[No title]
		A third characteristic of American political economy is the absence of long chains of deduction, such as English economists have affected, from the assumption that competition equalizes the wages of labourers and the profits of capitalists in different occupations and localities throughout a country.
		But in some States, Pennsylvania especially, there were rich coal-beds and iron ores; and the owners of these and the capitalists at their side were naturally impatient for an earlier harvest, in reaping which, moreover, they could not, like the English protectionists, be charged with taxing the food of the labourer.
		The prospects of political economy in the United States should be augured rather from the capacity shown than from what has been actually done, and in that sense the works of both the writers just referred to afford favourable indications.

	Blur: The Speed of Change in the Connected Economy. \| North America > United States from AllBusiness.com

	Disease Economy: How the United States Economy Runs on "Treating" Chronic Disease
		We're basing our economy on the idea that we can treat more and more people with drugs and medical services and keep selling them soft drinks and fast food while calling it economic growth.
		In the old days, the arguments for the invisible hand in the economy were that if you let entrepreneurs compete in a free market, they would devise clever and efficient ways to create, produce and deliver goods and services to consumers that would ultimately enhance their quality of life.
		They're operating in a disease economy, and in a disease economy, it costs way too much for workers because workers are diseased, and you have to cover the costs of treating all that disease so you can have health insurance for all those workers.

	Economy & Trade - United States Mission to Germany
		As many studies have shown, income distribution in the United States and other industrialized countries is skewed.
		[…] [This] suggests that a huge proportion of the economy's productivity gains are neither being passed on to consumers through lower prices—which would have the effect of raising real incomes very broadly—nor being distributed to investors as profit, nor even being used to raise the wages of most employees in industries seeing rapid productivity growth.
		Half of the states have enacted consumer incentives to encourage consumers to buy such autos, and the 2005 Energy Bill included tax incentives for consumers buying certain alternative fuel vehicles.” The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers is a trade association including BMW Group, DaimlerChrysler, Ford Motor Company, General Motos, Mazda, Mitsubishi Motors, Porsche, Toyota and Volkswagen.
