Wow. On a per-person basis, that might even be worse that our debt... I doubt it. If the US federal government's debt were to be restated in the same terms (including unfunded liabilities), it would be about the same.

Different people have different estimates, but the LOWEST I could find for the US was the unfunded liability for various entitlements is 60
trillion dollars.

And that doesn't include various state entitlement programs, which are estimated to be as high as 3 trillion, combined.
