That may be true, but as I understand it China already has a 
large interest in our mortgages. And there is speculation that 
they notified Paulson, the Secretary of the Treasury, that if he 
didn't get this under control they would pull out; causing an 
even bigger problem. And that supposedly triggered the government 
Freddie Mac under conservatorship.

Now, how about we get back to Linux.
