Says who? Someone can rise out of the middle east:
Satan: "Hey, you owe us and china all this money but we can solve this debt problem."
US: "How?"
Satan: "Its easy, we attach a mark on your hand or on your forehead and youll have to transact using that. It solves all your identity theft, financial crimes, frauds, illegal immigration, tax evasion, money laundering, counterfeit money, and other issues and we have a cashless society that will make the financial system totally efficient. We'll call it the 666 financial system and you can ask 90% income tax until all the debt is paid off."
US: "Geee, that kinda sucks but I guess we've got no choice."
Satan: "Sure you have a choice, you can go back to medieval times if you like. No oil, no power, life will really (as you say in America) suck. Or you can use this system which we've already deceived... errr convinced... many other nations to join."
US: "Fucker.... okay where do i sign up?"
Satan: "Put your hand out...."
