Just a thought...... I was listening to the Autumn budget bollocks today and the usual national debt figure was mentioned briefly. My question is this.... who do we borrow money from in the first place as the banks have been bailed out and our great leaders talk about the world recession all the time. If all countries are feeling the pinch where does the money come from to help out our shit?:confused::confused:
Pension Funds
Printing machines!
If its pension funds doesn't that make them worthless as they can't possibly cover the huge debt?

Government bonds t bills are the us equivalent ours are gilts. China holds a lot of the debt, in fact if they cashed everything in they would bankrupt the U.S.
