Also, "per capita"?

  Also no mention of "share of GDP". Basically, the article is rubbish.

    Share of GDP seems important. Why is this rubbish?

      Not the OP, but I think the comment meant that without inflation adjustment and proper ratios, you can't draw correct conclusions. The nominal number is big, but 2008 number is today's dollars would have been $14.17 trillion, or 11.3% higher than the current debt reported.
