The United States Treasury now borrows at rates far higher than most other world governments. In Asia, the US borrows at almost double the rate of China, Singapore, and Japan, but also Vietnam. In Europe, even the governments of historically badly managed PIIGS countries can borrow for lower rates than can the United States. Skyrocketing US government deficit spending is sucking in hundreds of billions of dollars a year from banking systems around the world, adding to inflation in the US and, ironically, making USD more scarce and valuable outside the US. American political and banking officials boast of strong economic growth and US dollar demand, but can only secure new lenders by paying some of the highest borrowing rates in the world.
