"People today are frightened that we are teetering on the brink of catastrophe," said Nicholas. "This easy-to-understand explanation of the U.S. debt burden helps consumers, advisors, and media professionals gain more confidence that everything is not all doom and gloom and our economic system is not on the brink of total collapse." The $24.7 trillion question http://gibrannicholas.com/2009/02/12/the-247-trillion-question This is a comparison of the total U.S. government debt ratio with other countries such as Germany, France, Italy, and Japan. "I'm sure you've heard that the U.S. dollar is going to collapse, inflation is going to skyrocket, and China and the rest of the world is going to stop buying US Treasury bonds," said Nicholas. "This comparison of the U.S. debt burden with the rest of the world dispels the myth that US debt levels are extraordinarily high and out of line when compared to Japan or the Euro zone." "We are finding that many people today are paralyzed by fear and indecision," said Nicholas. "he purpose of this blog is to share insights that help dispel some of the unfounded fears that exist in today's marketplace."
