Debt is currency and sovereign debt in our fiat capitalist global economy is as blue chip as you can get. The Commie Chinks are the biggest customers for American debt which makes it all the more laughable that they would ever go to war with Uncle Sam.
Which is why Putin’s threats to go nuclear in his war are as empty as a whore’s promise, as if Xi would let him go near the button.
While single figures to 20 trillion took 3 decades , 20-30 barely one.
However US is unique in being able to print almost endlessly for now as loads of offshore demand.
The issue is political football, of course its a big number its the largest economy.
Some 2020 figures
Debt to GDP Ratio by Country 2023
Top 12 Countries with the Highest Debt-to-GDP Ratios (%)
- Venezuela — 350%
- Japan — 266%
- Sudan — 259%
- Greece — 206%
- Lebanon — 172%
- Cabo Verde — 157%
- Italy — 156%
- Libya — 155%
- Portugal — 134%
- Singapore — 131%
- Bahrain — 128%
- United States — 128%
As of December 2020, the nation with the highest debt-to-GDP ratio is Venezuela, and by a considerable margin. The South American country has what may be the world's largest reserves of oil, but the state-owned oil company is said to be poorly managed, and Venezuela's GDP has plummeted in recent years. At the same time, Venezuela has taken out massive loans, adding to its debt burden, and president Nicolas Maduro has made questionable moves to slow the country's rampant inflation.
Japan occupies the second slot with a ratio of 266%. In 1992, Japan's Nikkei (stock market) crashed. The government bailed out banks and insurance companies, providing them with low-interest credit. Banks were consolidated and nationalized, and other stimulus initiatives were used to help the struggling economy. However, these actions caused Japan's debt to increase dramatically.
Another interesting entry on this list is the United States, whose debt-to-GDP ratio ranks 12th out of all the world's countries. While the U.S. boasts the highest GDP in the world,, it nonetheless spends more than it earns. Major contributors to the national debt include the world's largest military budget, tax cuts (which reduce government income and rarely result in a corresponding increase in economic growth), COVID-19 relief efforts, and mandatory-but-underfunded programs such as Medicare.
All major democracies have surpassed 100% of GDP aJapan , Itaky etc debt than USA with fewer creditors, resources or mineral reserves.
So long as commodities are priced in Dollars there will be demand
Who would want payment in Viet Dong, Zimbabwe Toliet tissue or Venzualan Kleneex , try finding a taxi to tale a Scottish note is hard enough in London.
IMHO fall in Kwai , Sterling since Brexit and stiffer Swiss banking laws have all aided the greenback
Sure there were forecast the Euro and later BRIC,S SCC and crypto might replace the dollar but it hasn't happened
You always know the Mickey Mouse countries like Indo , Laos where they won't even accept their own currency to pay for entry. The Thai Consuls in Vietnam or Laos don't want any local nor slyamease loot, crsip clean greenbacks only ,the nongs choice.
Almost impossible to acquire debt when any true wealth or worth is non-existent.
Just making it up as we go.
It's all good.
Expanding the fanciful empire.
Old men losers polluting the News Forum again. :/
One stumpy lad that spends everyday drinking alone.
One obese lad that spends every night drinking alone in a US state he's never left.
One 90 year old lad that concocts stories of pedophilia and spreads them around when he gets a red repo (...or maybe two ) while consisting on a pregophilia diet.
