  B) Yes, but only if the quality of U.S. goods and services is deteriorating.
  C) Yes. If U.S. consumers buy too many imported goods, they do not have funds to save, and a budget deficit results.
  D) No. The budget deficit is entirely a domestic matter, while the trade deficit only affects U.S. citizens who travel abroad.
