And anyone concerned about the impact of excessive debt on their personal finances and lifestyle once it works through the system.
Broadly, it translates to increased government borrowing, higher consumer interest rates, higher taxes, and so-called 'austerity' (just a fancy name for cuts).
I think a concern also is the impact on lower and even middle income households - those with limited income, faced with job insecurity, increased cost of living and increased cost of debt.
I expect that we'll be seeing more charts like this over the next year.
