Talk:Economy of the United States

This list is also missing (i.e. list of top beneficial owners by nationality). Forbes' List of high net worth individuals/billionaires helps but this is different. I suspect however some TRILLIONAIRES/families are missing ([https://web.archive.org/web/20060115031554/http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/this_britain/article56239.ece if they exist]). 47.17.16.137 (talk)

World factbook cites 73.6% of GDP (2015 est.) and US treasury department [http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/debt/current "102% of GDP"].

The 2023 GINI coefficient data I have used is from the OECD website, which contains the identical source chart used to verify the 2021 Gini coefficient information for the Economy of the United Kingdom page's main sidebar.

Since it is considered a valid source for that article, I have included it as a source to update the figure in this one.

I hope that is sufficient to prevent any reversions to this article.

For several decades, American companies have moved their production to foreign countries because labor costs are lower there, which has created a trade deficit. This deficit is therefore not the fault of these foreign countries but rather that of American companies. Could we add a section on the subject in order to inform American citizens and their president? YB ^✍ 12:28, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

:Actually, trade deficits are caused by the value of imported goods being greater than the value of exported goods. Outsourcing has no immediate effect on imports and exports. Dimadick (talk) 16:30, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
