Ok, misread your spirit...

What you say is true, but only for short term if the country is running a deficit ( and we know that is the case). The deficitis money owned , a lot of it to foreign countries in foreign currency... So the payment of interest ans capital ( if paid back) goes up instantly.

Also, any foreign country making loans to the US will make it in other currency than US$ to prevent a loss in the value of the loan...

So short term is good for the US, but long term not so good...
