"The real question is, how do you unwind the $62 Trillion in CDSs, that are bigger than the capitalization of the entire US stock market????"

Correct. And, assuming you manage to do that, what are you left with?

"Hello, how the fuk did this happen????"

Well, they didn't only loot the Treasury. You know, the fox and hen house principle. Ted is a little over the top, but this very well could be the end of capitalism as we know it. What comes next is totally unknown.
