You don't even need to add them. After all, that money doesn't physically exist. It's just an annotation on a contability book. Just erase it and the debt is no more. If the world decides to "erase" those debt annotations on their contability books, the US debt stops existing.

    I think this could be a potential play in a 2nd American Civil War. The EU and others can delay or restructure the debt of the Blue Union, while refusing to do any sort of trade with the Red Confederacy.
