No the guy is right the US, UK, Germany and a few other countries have a few years to get their debt down so they don't issue any new debt. As long as they do this no problemo. In fact Germany is planning to do this anyway, in 2020 they will issue no new debt. As long as they stick to this shouldn't be a problem. This is because demand for bonds won't be satisfied so should keep the bubble in check.
If they keep increasing their debt, then yes there will be a "Greece moment" sometime down the line.I'm alright JackComment
