you seem to think inflation is inherently bad, which it is not. inflation is preferrfed in many cases (the yen, peso, etc) because it leads to more wholesale purchases of exported goods due to a lower price. Is inflation always good? no. is inflation good for an economy that exports like the U.S.? in moderation, yes.
">UK consumer spending increasing constantly"
there's your claim, sir.
you seem to be looking at the recession from a subjective standpoint. i'm not saying it was good, i'm not saying it was a benefit, i'm simply showing the influence the U.S. economy has on the rest of the world.
