      To believe that the US will continue to exploit the world by extraction of wealth without pushback is hazardous. The newly independent countries post WW 2 have morphed into much more self aware entities. The trick of stashing away billions for the benefit of chosen traitors in return for facilitating plunder of their own countries doesn't work so well. How do finance future deficits ? Do you want trade relations with anyone? Can Western Europe bear the burden of luxury of Americans by sacrificing their own well being? Can you continue to mislead people by controlling them via social media run by intelligence agencies cahoots with Zucky Boy and the rest?

      Fractional reserve banking means the dollars are loaned into existence. How many real cents/assets the banks need for every dollar they create, is determined by The FED.
      So The FED sets various reserve requirements and here the SLR - Supplementary Leverage Ratio (Basel III tier 1 leverage ratio) - is the relevant one.
      Excluding treasuries from the leverage ratio calculation violates Basel III and promotes the banks to mini-central banks - but without any FED mandates or transfers of profits to The Treasury.
      They can now add to The Treasury's bank accounts held at the banks - at will. The Treasury reciprocates by adding treasuries to the banks' treasury accounts - at will.
      Instead of having a TGA (Treasury General Account) at The FED, The Treasury will now have many mini TGAs. When they spend the money, the banks just move the numbers to the citizens' accounts.

    everyone makes the same mistake. they assume governments and the fed, actively try to avoid crisis..it very easy to argue that crisis is desired. you gain market share in a crisis. good for fed, good for governments, good for 1%, good for JPM, good for top 20 sp500 companies. Central authorities, by their nature, promote centralization of power. Gromen is smart, but his assumptions are still that the decision makers are trying to avoid crisis.
