But with the cost of everything out of control and the economy likely headed for a downturn, I can't justify splurging on travel to far-off destinations. Instead, I'm prepping for next year's vacation. I'm taking the travel fund I've already saved up and putting it into a nine-month certificate of deposit

Thomas Klitgaard The obvious answer to the question of why the United States runs a trade deficit is that its export sales have not kept up with its demand for imports.
