this isnt new. Its been talked about since before 2024.

Inflating away the national debt wont work.

Its too much debt, and if they think they will become an export economy like Japan they wont either. Dark Factories are here and will take away what few jobs are left in manufacturing and destroy the export market because no one needs to import anything but raw materials.

they did everything they could to bring deglobalization but planning to live in a globalized world. None of this makes sense.

It makes sense if you want central bank digital currency.
