当一个政府背负着巨额债务时,将会大大削弱一国经济实力。三十年前,希腊中央政府的债务占GDP的比重还不到30%,当2009年债务危机爆发时,希腊的负债率已达到126.8%。日本仅用了17年的时间,负债率由1977年的50.6%,迅速攀升到1994年的120.1%,债务的高速扩张使日本人均GDP于1995年达到了空前水平4.25万亿美元,却换来了长达14年以美元计价的人均GDP负增长时代。尽管美国一直很努力地在控制中央政府的债务水平,相对于2006年4.81万亿美元的人均GDP来说,该年64%的债务水平不能说算高,然而仍然没有阻挡次危机的爆发,随后 When a government bears huge debts, it will greatly weaken the economic strength of a country.
