I don't know, but I cannot believe it's that much.

The U.S. is not bankrupt. The U.S. dollar is still reigns. Interest
rates for U.S. Treasury bonds are lower than probably any other
country, yet people still flock to them. And people bought even MORE
when Standard and Poor's downgraded them! There is no credible threat
for inflation troubles, allowing for monetary policy to be used as a
tool (OK, that's largely exhausted at this time, aside for some tricks
I believe can still be done, but cannot describe).
Occupy Wall Street is a whole other issue. It relates to economic
unfairness and the like, and they are right. I was talking about the
Euro, not economic unfairness, and was typing up a loose end with the
discussion of the Euro from a previous thread.
