This is one of those things where I'm torn between "there's no way the cabal of competent capitalists running this entire circus would ever allow this because a bank run would destroy the mountain of fictitious capital that is their dragon's hoard" and "oh fuck, I'm not sure any of the cabal of capitalists that run this circus are competent anymore, they might actually do it."

Look at it this way, if they wreck the economy, then at least we know if the power brokers are still competent or not, and who is whose figurehead. It would answer so many questions.

I’m just not willing to pay the price for such knowledge
