national debt to be wiped out?

If you owe somebody money and you have a fight with him do you think that you no longer owe him any money?

Do you have different fights for different owes? One hand only for a fiver. 'No kicking' ones for twenty quid. And knives for a ton?!

Much of our debt is owed to ourselves rather than the Chinese. A lot of it could be squared off by cancelling what the Treasury owes the Bank of England.

we would be mad to declare war with Chinabut if we decide we are longer going to pay our debts, nobody would lend us any moneywe would be in an appalling state

If we want China to let us off the debt we owe themI doubt declaring war on them is the way to goit would not put us in their good books!

war with china has been called off, we've got nowhere to put the prisoners of war

horusisis

the bigger concern should be what happens when the US tell China they aren't getting their money back.

The world economy will collapse at that stage. I hope I am not here when that happens. Money will be worthless.but yes I believe they will renege on their debts at some time and go back to isolationism.

Money's worthless anyway .. it's all an illusion

George Osborne has decided that it is bonkers for the Treasury to borrow £11bn a year to generate spare cash that sits at the APF doing nothing”Fck Genius
