Very astute analysis.... Interesting stuff.
It's just hypothesis, and it's worth considering.
If you lose your income, you use savings until you get your income flowing in again.
When savings are gone, you option for credit cards to pay your bills.
With credit cards maxed out, and no income or savings, what do you do? Reset?
Well, that reset would be going to court and filing for bankruptcy, where you may have all your debt written off, and you get the fresh start.
What would happen if our government file for bankruptcy, and can't pay its bills?
Despite unrest, riots, maybe even revolution... none of those currently in power would be re-elected to office, rather they would end up in jail, except...
What if they blow the system up, blame it on the other guy, and not just stay in power, but have more or unlimited power?
You see, while we're all arguing about Russia, Ukraine, NATO, EU, China, etc... do you know what western governments are doing? They're working with banks on creating new, digital currency based on blockchain, but unlike cryptocurrencies that are decentralized, new currency will be completely in government control, and they'll be able not just monitor every transaction you make, but control it's usage, meaning you can't use it without their permission. I believe Canada had a test run recently...
Just a thought.
