This is not a thing because the government has debts in our name. Everyone is in debt, even people who just arrived here or were born.

Ok. Then what if a significant portion of individuals don't have loans?
And by the way government debt is a different matter.
I haven't had so much as a credit card in fifteen years. Not that I ever had a problem with the card, i just don't like the possibility.
No debts that others can call in means we have more resilience than the average citizen in a Stage One or Stage Two collapse.
