      ‘they’
      Maybe learn to read.
      It’s some western think tank that says that.

            Are you pretending to be dumb or are you actually dumb?

            You assumed I was talking about Cuba, you got it wrong and said I couldn’t read which is rude.

      They can probably find 8 billion dollars in the same place that USA found 29127 billion dollars.

      It’s just numbers anyway.

        The USA is in a unique financial situation as the worlds reserve currency which allows them to borrow pretty much endlessly (because other countries want their money), bit of a quick video on it here:
