    Anyway, take a look at this graphic and slide the bar to 2010, it's all red (deficit) apart from Saudi Arabia - Canada and Russia included. My original question related to where the money comes from, as it seems as if everyone is lending off each other regardless of whether they have a surplus or not.
    This picture shows anual surplus or deficit. From this you can not see accumulated ned debt or "savings" of the country.
    China and Middle east has the biggest savings - so even if China run a annual deficit for a year or two they still have savings they can lend to others.

    China and Middle East funds everyone else these days.
