In 1985, the <em>New York Times</em> reported, "U.S. Turns into Debtor Nation," because a Commerce Department report showed the US "owing foreigners more then they owe it."  By that they meant that "foreign ownership of American factories, real estate, stocks and bonds exceeded American ownership of foreign assets."
