Jen asked:


Are people more afraid and purchase more insurance or less? Does it make them delay purchasing insurance? Life and Health insurance specifically. More specifically senior medical supplement policies, advantage plans, life insurance, long term care insurance, and annuities. I’m asking for myself. Is it a good time economically in the U.S. today to sell these products? General or specific information will be helpful. Thank you for your experience and thoughts.

Is it possible that at some point a foreign auto company could take over GM with 51% by their decreasing stock price?

Nobody really cares for [...]]]> bankrupt

Shane Uehara asked:


Why can’t we let it go bankrupt if it’s not making money? Why would you give money to a company that can’t make money back?

Is it possible that at some point a foreign auto company could take over GM with 51% by their decreasing stock price?

Nobody really cares for American cars nowadays except those rental companies, so what’s the point of keeping it?
welll.. with GM gone, they can get jobs at Japanese auto plants based in US.. so they can expand and make even nicer cars for the consumers.. American cars **** anyway.

I know the US external debt is around 12 trillion, but what is the composition of the said debt? Treasury securities? What?

Amy B asked:


Does the size of the government’s debt and the size of the budget deficit indicate potential problems for the economy in any of these cases?

1. The government’s debt is relatively low, but the government is running a large budget deficit as it builds a high-speed rail system to connect the major cities of the nation.
2. The government’s debt is relatively high due to a recently ended deficit-financed war, but the government is now running only a small budget deficit.
3. The government’s debt is relatively low, but the government is running a budget deficit to finance the interest payments on the debt.

I’ve heard several candidates claim that by spending too much we go bankrupt? how is a nation with our economic status exactly go bankrupt ?

I’ve never taken an economics course so this idea of a nation going bankrupt is very confusing to me.
Yeah but don’t we always spend more than we have, and just have the fed print the rest of the cash needed or borrow it from another nation ?
