Why are Foreigner's like China/India/Europe So Happy that USA Economy is Collapse?

Whats so good about it I heard england were smiling when they heard the USA economy was crashing an that people were cheering in Iran What is the USA military doing to straighten out these jerks who are making fun of us? Should we sent in people to shut these folks up and make them more respectful and show better manners?

1. It is a worldwide crisis not just a US crises
2. What a foolish question ... as the American economy goes .. so does the world ... it is what we call a global economy .....
3. I think we should stick a big finger at the world and ride this out. At the end of the day they are in the same boat we are! lol so either we all sink or most of us float.
4. yes please do send in people ha. i dont think anyone really finds it funny as such. but i think people may be a bit happy about the US being brought down off its high horse
5. I am european and not pleased with USA economy collapse since all earth economy is linked and one collapse in USA has negative consequences for us
6. That's ridiculous. They're not smiling. Their own banks are going down too. Please read the world news. There are millions of other people around the world facing job loss and recession too. Other countries have been subsidising America's good life and are having to suffer the losses of their BAD INVESTMENTS in US stupidity. The US has sold much of its debt to China amongst other countries to keep itself afloat. If they want to sell their US stock in a panic and the US dollar plummets as a result that's not their fault. Take some responsibility instead of hating and blaming the people you owe money to. How can you blame them for wanting to save themselves when the debt investment you sold them turns out to be a complete DUD thanks to your unregulated, greedy, out of control system. Thanks very much!
7. Yes by all means let's go over and destroy (murder) anyone who makes fun of us. After all, we're the great American Empire of the 21st century, and we don't tolerate anyone who disses us. Yeesh.
8. They are not. Their markets screwed up as much as ours. The ones that laugh are probably ignorant. Ignorance is bliss.
9. er no , no we are not , it's affecting the World no it's not just you - even China have having a rough time trust me no one is happy that the US Economy is falling in on it's self , dont ever join the military please , you cant just attack a country because they are making fun of you
10. wait until the world switches to the Euro bye bye America!
11. I doubt too many of the smart people are as they understand that their own economies will collapse if the USA's does but heck, Iranians? Muslims were dancing in the streets when they heard that terrorists murdered people in the twin towers assault. The average Joe? Generally reactions are emotive based. The US has been leading the free world since the latter days of WW II and Europe has been in decline which causes resentment - this is still a nationalist world. Chinese and Indians on the street probably think that the US's loss is their gain but they do not understand how intertwined their economies are with that of the USA. We need do nothing and them letting off some steam will be good for their health and will effect absolutely nothing. If our economy goes into depression, they will understand soon enough. One thing borne out by history - status quo means more peaceful and change means civil unrest, war, and suffering. The US can weather a depression - the internal market is big enough to get by and most of our industries can be rebuilt quickly to serve our own people but others will have a much harder time of it and we will not be there to ensure the peace and protect them. The last laugh is always the best one.
12. I blame it to NAFTA. U.S. economy was doing good until this free trade agreement was introduced. Not just a free trade anymore, but also spreading high technology to other countries... Keep in mind that if we go down, everyone is going down with us...
13. Man you are one ignorant person. Seriously it's people like you who are leading to the USA's decline, do the USA a favour and go and get educated!!! In a global economy all these markets are connected and all suffer. China is far from happy because the USA remains it's biggest export market. You heard England was smiling??? What the whole nation stood shoulder to shoulder up and down the coast smiling?! Maybe a couple of idiots that would be a British version of you, but if you took a couple of seconds to read the news you'd know the UK was going through as much trouble as the US with debt burdens and recession causing major problems in addition to its own housing market decline. Happy is the wrong word for it, but bad management of US financial institutions, poor central bank policy in 2001 and bad fiscal management has given Asian economies among others, opportunities to buy up US banks and other business interests, that's about the only thing they'd be vaguely happy about, but they're taking a vested interest in your country and helping it bail itself of the hole the US dug itself into. You should be saying thank you instead of mouthing of like some kind of ignorant monkey. And the US military has more than enough on its hands already than to even remotely consider going to war with its militarily or economic partners.
