The real danger behind this is that a large part of the fiat money are backed by these debts
When the debt defaults, so goes the value of those fiat money, then the confidence about currency becomes weak, there will be inflation, and FED can only raise interest rate as a counter measure. However, that will trigger another round of assets selling, which further weaken the value of the assets that backing those currency, causing more panic inflation. Then there is no point of return

So what? A lot more people are buying their own homes too. Debt per person isn't really the greatest indicator.

What happens if China or Japan asked for their 2.5 trillion back?
Is that even possible? Will it just be unpaid forever or will they print more money and send it back?
I don't know how it works tbh....?

IMO, the greatest indicator is income. Income does not increase as fast as debt. Now a large part of their income comes from the fact that the house will increase in price later, which is only possible to maintain by more borrowing and more money printing. It can still last for a while, but once you have been on this track for too long and you suddenly find out it is a dead end, maybe there is no way to go back by then

When paying the interest on the national debt is more than our budget...it will cause some problems. Current interest payment is $430 billion. The proposed Defense budget for this year is $526 billion. We will soon be paying more in interest than for our national defense. If some politician says they have some plan for fixing the budget and it does not include addressing the huge debt, they are feeding you a pile of shit.

If Ron Paul were elected in 2012, we would be seeing budget surpluses in next year's budget which could be used to start paying down that debt (It would not be $18 trillion either). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ccwbystate.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F10%2Fron-paul-budget-plan-2012.png&t=665&c=T8F4VpbHU57w-g)

The US will not repay the debt. So it does not matter how much debt it has. It can also inflate away the debt.

There's not a single country that can pay their debts, let alone the insane debts of countries like the US.
