I don't see why. What the state does with money is creating a medium of 
exchange for the assets of the state, including goods and the manpower of its 
people. The debt is like a mortage. 
Only if the debt is higher than the sum of assets you can't get out of debt. I 
don't know the debt of the US, but the german debt is 15.000 EUR per head. So 
there is no theoretical problem to pay it back (it's a practical problem, you 
can hardly pay it back without creating a recession).
