updates: The American economy is experiencing a strong recovery, with falling inflation, rising growth, and impressive GDP growth of 3.3 percent. Forecasters who predicted a recession have been proven wrong. The economic resurgence is good news for Democrats in an election year and could help alleviate protectionist pressures in Washington. The recovery has been fueled by massive government spending, reminiscent of the Keynesian stimulus model. The American turnaround is in stark contrast to the troubled Chinese economy and showcases American economic exceptionalism. The recovery has been accompanied by rising inflation and a staggering national debt burden. However, these issues have not become hot-button issues in the U.S.
