Anyone that doesn't care about the amount of debt is just an Ostrich with their head in the sand. It's looming large and there are only a couple of ways out. One, which isn't appealing at all, is war where the winner literally crushes the opponent and the debt along with it.
Two, some kind of massive catastrophe where the debt is eliminated in exchange for assistance.
Both are about as likely as you or I winning the Powerball.
My only advice is to plan for your own personal escape if needed from a dying economy and keep lots of tradable assets on hand just in case you need to leave the area quickly.
