Ever wonder how big the problem really is?

This chart pretty much sums it up.

Notice the Greenspan years.

Total US Debt as Percentage of US Gross Domestic Product.

NED DAVlS chart marked up by me.
 
in 20 years we will have an even greater credit bubble and someone here on ET probably not yet born will make the same comment about the "little blip on the left" (2008)
 
Maybe they'll call it the Greater Depression.

everyone assumes infinite positive growth, not gonna happen
 
the chart doesnt mean nothing.

in booming years debt increases exponentially to fuel the economic growth.

while in recession years debt contracts due to lack of demand for capital.

thats it.

economic cycles are the reason behind the increase or decrease in the levels of debt. not the the other way around.
