I don't see the US paying off their debt. Its wayyy to fricken large. There will be permanent long-standing issues for the US. I don't really see them being a permanent powerhouse anymore. longevity seems to be severely impacted, and I do not believe domestic taxation will make any significant cut towards the US's debt. Ultimately, they are almost most-definitely SCREWED. I don't know so much about Canada's debt, but im pretty sure we are in a much better position. 566.7 billion in debt is a lot more manageable than 14 trillion.
