US Trade Deficits


The seeds of rapid US economic destruction were planted in 1989 and continued until 2017. In those 28 years the US government took the National Debt from $5 trillion to $20 trillion and increased the Trade Deficit from $100 billion to $800 billion. This was done to crash the US economy in preparation for full UN Agenda 21 implementation of the “New World Order.” The Trump election in 2016 put that plan on hold. Democrats will resist the repeal of UN Agenda 21 and the dismantling of the Deep State.

In 1960 the US Trade Balance was Zero and remained close to Zero until 1980. It increased to $150 billion and dropped back to $30 billion in 1990. 

In 1993, the US Trade Deficit took off. It reached $828 billion in 2006. It dropped to $504 billion in 2009, due to the 2008 Meltdown. It rose to $737 billion in 2016.
