Timba,

Since the US is the largest economy in the world, naturally our debt will be higher than most other countries.

So let's try that link again, but use Ex Debt Per GDP data to TRULY capture where the US lies as a debtor nation:

nationmaster.com

Then try it as "per capita":

nationmaster.com

Significant difference now.. And who would have guessed that little Monaco, wealthy as it is, would lead the list of per capita external debt leaders?
