"The US generated nearly $14 trillion in economic output in 2007, however the national debt – money that central and federal governments owe to the US public and the world through the bonds they have issued - stands at $10 trillion.
The US citizenry have a huge appetite for imports and as a result consumer debt stands at $11.4 trillion. The debts of US companies amounts to $18.4 trillion. This makes the US indebted to the tune of $40 trillion, more than twice what the US economy produces annually."
