If you add up the total debt — state, local, the works — every man, woman, and child in this country owes 200 grand (which is rather more than the average Greek does). Every American family owes about three-quarters of a million bucks

And that is including every family that has very few assets and no savings. Including families that have negative net worth.

Those numbers are grotesque.... Hold on to your hats. May be a good moment to re-visit "The Future", by great Leonard Cohen.
