Q
"$7,166,576,990,895.41" was the figure on New York's national debt clock on the day this story went to press. If that figure is too big to comprehend then consider this, every citizen of America owns US$24,387, and each day the US national debt increases by a staggering US$1.87 billion. The United States is the world's biggest debtor. But eventually the books must be balanced and the first casualty of that event will be the US dollar.
