Like all countries really. EU and UK debts are like 80% of GDP, US's about 100%, China's is 3 times their GDP.

China's national debt is definitely not 300% - checking Wikipedia it says only 48.4%. If you add ALL their debt: household, corporate, and national...then it's 317%.

Please be careful citing these figures.

Debt clock lists us at 136% debt to GDP. We are long passed 100%
