@Zardoz,
No I didn't.
I noted that the move away from the dollar, towards China, as the global currency of choice was far more of a threat to the American economy than the national debt.
America is in a special place economically due to the petrodollar, and were that to change it woulc be disastrous for the American economy.
China is flexing its economic muscle and could very easily collapse the American economy by short selling its US govt. stock.
The only reason it hasn't is because it's not in China's interest, but that could very well change.
And America's war of choice with Iran has made China stronger and is hastening the end of the American century.
