I would ask Bank of Greece Governor George Provopoulos what he thinks the US is in for.

As for Greece itself, Mr. Provopoulos is predicting that Greece's public debt burden could amount to 130% of GDP or higher by 2014, well above the government's estimate of 120.6% this year, even as he warned that the economy could shrink by more than 2% in 2010.

"The Greek economy is in the midst of a deep, structural and multifaceted crisis," he said. "The exit from this crisis will therefore require a multiannual, persistent and systematic effort. It will require a break with the past."

(they also have huge public pension overhangs, like ours) Hangovers?

We (the US) isn't in dire crisis mode, yet,
but we're sure working hard to catch up!
