#5  China wouldn't get off scott free, JosephM. Those T-bills, etc are about the solidest thing their economy has. Almost all the manufacturing is connected to the export market, which is pretty shaky at the moment.

All though to a large extent it's probably a credit bubble.

China banks issued 162 million new credit cards in the first 6 months of this year.
