The downfall of countries is lack of production to sustain its consumption.

That's what happens when you allow a importer class to take root in any economy. Go to any mall in any city in Pakistan and you'll see smuggled stuff from all over the world-- this needs to stop or we'll always be dependent on external help.

And what about the stuff in CSD stores?

Overall I agree to your point but our manufacturing capabilities are pathetic from electric/electronics to automotive industry everything is import dependant. Okay we make ketchup, mayonnaise and juices in house so it probably would take longer time for our country to reach that point eventually

But the process of bankrupting Pakistan has already been fast tracked especially during past one and a half decade.

In the current global monetary setup only US has the privilege to print its money indefinitely with no or very little repercussions. Only they can bail out an economy like that if they wish to do so, thanks to oil rich spoiled Arabs to be an integral part of US dollar economy. Welcome to the US $ land
