So, we are getting rid of the dollar because we owe $33000000000000, and the interest alone is too much now. Can some one check my math, I may have left off a zero or two.
The amount we ‘owe’ is inconsequential. The principal is never paid back nor is it expected to be because it was no more than numbers written on a piece of paper.
It’s the INTEREST that they demand, and must be paid.
