While the article is tagged for having 'weasel words', I'm not sure what specifically is the issue. The major flaw of the page, in my eyes, is that there's no critical reviewer quoted who takes issue with the author's main point. Steyn claims that the U.S. national debt will lead to collapse, yet the fact that a decade or so has gone by with no such cataclysm does seem to indicate that the more Paul Krugman-esque point that America has a wide swath of economic options available in terms of borrowing (being able to run up the debt for some time if done so through worthy social investment)... well, Steyn may be dead, flat wrong. I'm more than willing to include this criticism in the article, but the rub is that I can't find a review of the book making that assertion. Are they out there?
