This is one “analyst” not worth listening to. The UK and USA are very different. The UK rose to economic power essentially through white-washed crime – pillaging India, China and others and more recently by manipulation of financial markets. The USA on the other hand, has vast land areas, resources, and is a technology innovator in sector after sector. The UK is a dud and has only been able to get through the past 100 years on the coat-tails of the USA. As for “bankruptcy”, the US can never go bankrupt given that its debt is in its own money that can be printed to infinity. Debt can either be cancelled, restructured or papered away. But if the debt of the USA was in another currency, then this would be a very different situation.
