I've come to believe that the US uses these puppet countries as testing grounds for their ideas about what to do next.



Japan and Europe will try out negative interest rates for us. India will try out the cashless society. Maybe it will "work" and maybe society will collapse in a raging ball of fire, but its not our people and their people believe they are also benefiting at the expense of others so who gives a shit?



When the time comes we can slip the bridle onto our own citizens with a set of regulations and rules informed by experience elsewhere. We can have negative interest rates here without accidentally paying people for their mortgages as happened in Scandinavia because our bankers saw that happening and updated their contract language. If people run to gold or bitcoins, we can have regulations at the ready so that there is no escape for 99% of the people here who dont think ahead and move into these things well in advance.



And so on...



The key for you and I is to realize that the govt is a slow lumbering myopic old man who acts in incredibily predicable ways you can see well in advance. The key is to trust yourself and your ability to see the facts as they unfold and to not take actions based on what you wish would happen or what "should" happen or on the belief that governments will learn from their own repeated failures.
