The article you linked to does only look at static data. That’s to simplistic. What if you factor some dynamic data into that equation?

For example Germany: this country exports about 20% more of value than it imports per year, while the US imports about 60% more of value than it exports. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/...

Doesn’t look so bad for Germany anymore if you consider there will be a tomorrow, does it?

I know, this is a simplification to, but it’s up to you to investigate further using a little more trustworthy source than something like “Loans & Debt Consolidation - Get Cash NOW!”
