"Washington is trying." This is a proposal? Has any part of it been implemented? Where does it stand in the spectrum between "Trump riffing on X" and a real policy with cash changing hands? Sounds kinda blue-sky, but weirder things have happened, especially in this weirded-out administration.
A confluence of events is occurring. Japanese yields are reaching levels last seen in 2007. America has a funding problem with expansive debt to fill the gap instead of taxes.
If Trump decides Russia owns Ukrainian land, former allies are threatening to sell enough bonds to get the regime’s attention.
They can try turning interest payment into users. lol. The run on bonds will be long and steep.

This is what happens when you just don't produce and export enough.

I’d say gold and silver. If you need a gold fund that generated income, such things exist too.
