Graphic: Global Debt Time Bomb

A quaint interactive graphic from the Buttonwood of the Economist.

It actually is labeled "Global Debt Comparison", where one can see how much debt had been accrued by different countries.

Pls click on the image to redirect to the site's link.
So far, as of this writing global debt has reached over $35 trillion or around 65% of the global economy (2008, currency)

But my interpretation is one of the risk of budding debt bubble which is being compounded as global governments continue to undertake "stimulus" efforts.
