    An IOU -- i.e., I Owe You -- is a piece of paper that you give somebody when you borrow money or an item from them. IOUSA is just a play on words.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

      Yeah, I imagine it's suppose to imply that there are IOU's in the SS trust fund which is BS.

          That's a lot of reading into something as simple as "The US owes money". Cause...the US does owe a lot of money.

          IOUSA - its a creative title, but to give it any deeply specific underlying meaning other than the obvious puts a lot more into what's basically a play on words.

            IOU's are typically hard to collect. The US is good for it's debt. In fact, US debt is the most trusted in the world.

                As a matter of fact CDS on Germany trades better than US, first time in history.
