That will prove an interesting event. What ya wanna bet that Drooling fools like Sear Leader and Monkey Bitch Pelosi won't "get it" but, will instead turn to the taxpayer to make up for what they see as a mere shortfall.

Since its foundation nearly two decades earlier, Nato had had its headquarters in France. Now Nato would have to move. Furthermore, de Gaulle added, it was his intention that all American service personnel should be removed from French soil.

It is often said that the Chinese and the Japanese will buy government bonds. But the truth of the matter is that trust in the gravitas and reliability of the United States has suffered to such a great degree that fewer and fewer foreigners are purchasing its government bonds. That's why the Federal Reserve is now buying securities that it has printed itself." http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,632494,00.html it's always a good idea to listen to the Germans.
