If the US defaulted on its debt, would foreign creditors have the moral and legal right to seize US resources?

Question

Answer 1

Good question.......This is one of the main reason why I believe socialism will not work this time around.

Answer 2

when your owed about 40 trillion from most countries ,it would be hard to do that!

Answer 3

They already do..

Check out the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority along with Hong Kong and China.... They own gobs of US assets.

Remember Abu Dhabi was the one that wanted to buy our sea ports.  They also bailed out CapitalOne in the financial fiasco.  They also bought the empire state building.  This is just what I remember.  ADIA investments are not made public.
