Yes but it's an international house of cards, I don't think U.S. is particularly exceptional in terms of debt. And we have that ability to prop up our economy with the threat of our military so even if things got really dire, that covert "Nuke Standard" would keep us going. Some businesses are too big to be allowed to fail, some nations too crazy and well-armed to.
