Fossil, for a minute ponder on this:

Pretend you are part of a consortium of the largest investment banks.

Your traders made oodles of money every day.

But, "wierdly" you lend a BIG wad of money to a country...in return for a fairly small interest rate.

And you actually keep lending...

Why?????????????????????????????????

The consortium could make MUCH more money buying, selling...stuff...like stocks, bonds, commodities...etc..

The answer is :CONTROL. You bought yourself control of the country.

Think about that word ...control.

Understand ...who is in charge.

Then take a look at Trump's right arm and left arm....Wilbur and Steve.

This example can be applied to any country with large debt.

Do you recall the 2 trillion in interest Canada paid out since 1974??

If you want to test this, my suggestion is open up a business and get a BIG loan.

Who will be the "boss" when it comes to money decisions?
