for Ireland, are you talking about % GDP or %governmental budget.

I don't know how or if the debt ceiling has any impact on refinancing.

% budget. Debt servicing is about 0.5% GDP, but Ireland’s GDP is so massively distorted that it’s not really worth paying attention to.

OK, I think we were using different units when comparing.

My concern is that the US GDP is also fluffed up, and the situation is more dire.
