Default GDP VS. Debt ?

US GDP as I understand it, is basicaly the value of what is produced by our labor force each year? So if this is correct and we have a GDP of roughly 14.5 billion and our national debt is 9.7 trillion.

19.7t / 14.5b = 669 years of free labor to repay debt

someone please tell me I'm wrong
