Why would your loan payment cost less? If you have $25,000 in debt and make $50,000 a year; you are still going to have the same debt, and the same income rate.

If the U.S. issues a bond, and subsequently devalues its currency, then it will cost less for the U.S. to pay it off. I cannot make it any more simple than that.

Not if you are paid in Euro's, and you agree to pay back $50k, and it now your salary is worth $1.25 for each euro, it becomes easier to pay off as the dollar devalues against the euro.
