The Federal Government of the United States pays off its Sovereign Debt held by China constantly: every time a treasury bill, note, or bond that they hold matures, they get U.S. Dollar cash to pay it off.

Can our $16 trillion debt be paid off in a year?

Will the United States have to repay its debt?
The United States will not repay its debts. In fact, this debt does not need to be repaid. But when China has established another set of international payment systems, bankrupt debtors will repay them in other ways. I suggest that Americans pay attention to the dynamics of Europe and Russia.
