No, you misunderstood me. I was only talking about financial debt, as I assumed you were. China is on the rise as an economic superpower, but my country's financial debt will not be the cause of any potential economic problems because of that. And if the Chinese government doesn't act, they will get environmental issues that could seriously hamper their economy as well.

But I agree with you completely that our debt to coming generations is building up beyond our ability to pay. We seem to be using up our planet and leaving nothing for them. It's a pity those cumulative future generations don't have representation in our "democracies", wouldn't you agree?
