An updated look at the United States’ precarious position given
the recent financial turmoil
In The New Empire of Debt, financial writers Bill Bonner
and Addison Wiggin return to reveal how the financial crisis that
has plagued the United States will soon bring an end to this once
great empire.
Throughout the book, the authors offer an updated look at the
United States’ precarious position given the recent financial
turmoil, and discuss how government control of the economy and
financial system-combined with unfettered deficit spending and
gluttonous consumption-has ravaged the business environment,
devastated consumer confidence, and pushed the global economy to
the brink. Along the way, Bonner and Wiggin cast a wide angle lens
that looks back in history and ahead to the coming century: showing
how dramatic changes in the economic power of the United States
will inevitably impact every American.
* Reveals the financial realities the United States currently
faces and what the ultimate outcome may be
* Weaves together the worlds of politics, economics, and personal
finance in a way that underscores the severity of the
situation
* Addresses the events leading up to the implosion of the U.S.
financial system
* Looks ahead to help you avoid the pitfalls presented by a
weaker United States
* Other titles by Bonner: Empire of Debt, Financial Reckoning
Day, and Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets
* Other titles by Wiggin: I.O.U.S.A., Demise of the
Dollar, and Financial Reckoning Day
The United States is heading down a difficult path. The New
Empire of Debt clearly shows how this has happened and
discusses what you can do to overcome the financial challenges that
will arise as the situation deteriorates.
