And of course the demand for these exports will be created with borrowed money "credit" in emerging markets... the cycle continues.

Actually redistribution is the answer.  Instead of 'loans', just take the 'money'.

Nonsense opebo, they are redistributing... at the rate of $100 to $250 a month. It's called trickle down economics.

Why did you give me a link about China?  We're talking about the US.

Because we're obviously not going to export to ourselves.

Which was my original point. If exports are the answer to everything, who is doing the importing, and how?

[Btw I agree with this article to an extent, and was even saying similar things last year, but still]

Yeah my point was I don't agree with the article and don't consider exports to be all that important.

Yeah but exporting isn't the only way to create wealth.  Even if the rest of the world ceased to exist the US could still create something.
