As usual 'The Economist' hides what is inconvenient. Having unpayable liabilities is only one side of the saga which is guaranteed to bankrupt USA. The other half is crony capitalism which puts interests of wall street banksters (many of them OWNERS of Federal Reserve) above the national economy. The shameful money printing supports both Wall Street and Entitlements. Hence it is the only course of action that is guaranteed to take place.
