question: these bajillions of dollars or whatever, were they by any chance part of the postal savings system that was just privatized?

if so, then aren't they effectively owned by the largest non-governmental financial organ in the world, which probably wouldn't benefit from the us crashing, except if they would first dump most of their stateside investments and start boosting eastern asia, then shit on the states, causing a massive western depression, and if correctly orchestrated, a slightly less massive , at least in the short run, upheaval in the orient?

then again, i just remembered why i don't really like economics

so poo
