The Total Credit Market Debt to GDP ratio has declined in the United States from 3.66 at the peak of the real estate bubble in 2006 to 3.39 today as excess mortgages were liquidated.

The Private Sector Debt to GDP ratio has declined from 3.06 to 2.29 as the U.S. government bailed-out banks, businesses and consumers. The bail-outs have increased the Government Debt to GDP ratio from 0.6 to 1.0 since 2007.

This reduction in Private Sector Debt to GDP through debt liquidation and bail-outs, doing the work of the economic depression, is the reason why the U.S. currently has the strongest economy.
