Japan's Debt As A Percentage Of Its GDP

Time for a new poll to see if people are paying attention. I posted the answer to the upcoming poll just a few minutes ago in another stand-alone post.

First, the results of one of the current polls in which we asked, which do you prefer for fracking:

• all sand: 23%
• all ceramics: 25%
• a mixture: 52%

Now the new poll -- which has absolutely nothing to do with the Bakken. The US debt has been coming down recently; last week Bloomberg said that US debt was less than 6% of the GDP of the US.

Japan, which has a booming economy compared to the US, also has a bit of debt. According to the Wall Street Journal, how does the Japanese debt compare with their GDP?

• 5%
• 7.5%
• 10%
• 12.5%
• 250%
