The foreign debt seems to be paid by reducing retirement money's value, reducing the average american's consumption, and increasing exports. Seems logical to me?

It's up to our foreign creditors, who just got screwed.
If foreigners sell their dollar bonds driving 10-year dollar
rates up (they own 1/2 of all treasuries), everything will
simply collapse IN DOLLAR TERMS along with the dollar. That's
what currency crises are made of. So far I see 10-year rates
went sharply down on safety bid, but the dollar is extremely
low, and the Fed's action was not to protect it, rather, let it
fall.
