If China calls our debt they can come get it through our supercarriers.

They won't do it, since it will collapse there economy also and that is not in China's best interests.

I dont think they well, what if a crazt terrorist got in control of asia

 

[Disgustipated]

Not likely.

A likelier scenario is Japan cashing in their bonds. They need quick cash for obvious reasons. They are the #3 holder of U.S. bonds I believe (after the U.S. and China)

Well I can agree with it.. kinda.. but you said "Germany was a superpower" this is basically false, they were in deep debt, and a recession, plus most of their power was taken away by the Treaty of Versailles..

Well Japan is pretty whipped, I doubt they would call upon the debts, especially because of the huge amounts of American aid due to us halving a huge military prescience in the region.

Yeah, the way the debt is structured, the Chinese can't actually do that. This isn't like lending a dollar to your friend so he can get a Coke.
