The US jas reached the point where it can't run a deficit anymore, period.

Uhmmm, the US is running a deficit at this moment. Perhaps you mean 'shouldn't'. instead of 'can't'?

"The debt is not threatening to the debtor as long as he can service it (liquidity)."

This is a ridiculous statement. If you're working two jobs to "service your debt", the debt is THREATENING to the debtor EVERY DAY. He's one mishap away from financial doom. Elroy seems to be from the Dick Cheney "deficits don't matter" school of denial!
