The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I know from some time ago (~early 2000s) that Buffett has expressed concern about the US current account deficit (aka trade deficit as I understand it). I remember an interview I saw (maybe 20 years ago!) in which he stated that the current account deficit was of more concern to him than the fiscal deficit.

Are you referring to WEB's article on Squandersville and Thriftville? I haven't read it in over 20 years. Maybe it's time to read it again?
