RE:RE:RE:It's the westernHow do you define heavily in debt? Sure the actual dollar figure of the debt is high but the actual costs of the debt are lower then ever due to low interest rates. Also, there is not really any good replacement for USD. The Yuan is too controlled by the Chinese Government to serve as the world's reserve currency, the Euro, Pound and Yen are all backed by countires that have much more precarious debt situations then the US. I guess if you are really worried you could by swiss francs but theres not enough of them to use for world trade. For these reasons I don't see the USD falling in the future.
