| This is a stupid question, but how do we pay China back? Posted by bartman217 If we were to start paying them back, how do we do it? With cash or gold? Sorry for the stupid question, but just wondering how it actually works. Reply Back to Top |

| They own Treasury Notes, Bonds, Bills. They get paid back like any other holder.....from additional borrowed funds Reply Back to Top |
| You just pay them back like we do now (and every other debt holder). As the treasury notes mature you pay them back. Reply Back to Top |

| When you say "we," you might be referring to a lot of different parties. Government: "We'll pay for it with 'revenue,' of course!" Working Americans who pay federal income taxes: "Well, I guess I'll retire when I'm 90." Americans who pay no federal income taxes: "China? Like the wrestler girl? Hey when's Catfish on tonight?"
