Let's assume your claim that all money flows to the US when/if the US raises rates is true. These other nations with capital leaving would probably be in the same predicament and have to result to similar moves. Just about everyone expects massive China devaluations. But the point is, unless the entire planet is a centrally controlled banker matrix with synchronized, planned devaluations all in coordination, then the reactions and effects of these moves are not going to be predictable.

Yep moving towards capital controls and war. But Asia will bottom 2020ish while the West will continue to fall into the abyss until at least 2032, because Asia does not have the huge entitlements to pay. It is all about taxation.

Concerning China, the reason that they will succeed is because they are turning inward by building their economy into a consumer reservoir and eliminating their dependence upon the West. They will decline at first, but they will recover and make new highs when the West fails.

Even the Bible said giving 10% was realistic, not 40% to 60% as we have under the current Marxist style governments in the West.

The first country that wakes up and abolishes income taxes will blow everyone else out of the water. All they have to do is say they will adopt the way the United States became great. There were only indirect taxes between 1792 and 1913. If the nation survived with no income taxes, we can do it again and let the people spend their own money. You will see massive job creation and governments will stop competing with the private sector to borrow money.

Most importantly, a big tax cut (from 35% to 20%) is planned for the corporations which will make the U.S. society richer, especially in the long run. Companies are the places that can use extra cash most effectively partially as an investment allocated by some of America's best managers which is why the lowering of their taxes is the best investment for the whole. Everyone who fails to get this simple point of trickle-down or supply side economics is just an economics (and history) crackpot. Try to cover it by your left-wing beliefs or anything else but it's actually crackpottery that is behind it.

China Moving to Replace USA as Financial Capitol of World

China will become the new Financial Capitol of the World as the West destroys themselves with raising taxes to fund impossible governmental consumption of wealth. The simple math shows the West cannot possibly survive the conclusion of this Private Wave in 2032. China uses and believes in cycles. The West believes only in a straight line.

In the chart above, we see that Asia (China+India) was dominant and stable during the Medieval period wherein the Western Roman empire had collapsed. Then as the West rose, eventually it conquered the East (think of how England addicted the entire of China to opium and took all of Chinas silver in payment for the opium they sold to them). Ditto UK colonialism of India and Europes colonialism of the entire third world. The USA rising while Europe declined was the West being stable in total, but now we see Asia climbing again as the West has destroyed itself with addictions to socialism, etc..

The chart above exemplifies that Western civilization has peaked and is destroying itself in an unstoppable wave of addiction to incorrect ideology.

Only if Trump can permanently destroy the leftists (which is not likely!) can the USA avoid the fate that awaits Europe.

Go study worldwide tax burdens and entitlements. China and the developing world has very low levels compared to West. The West is F.U.B.A.R. because of the leftist crap, entitlements, and massive taxation. The level of debt is not that important. Rather it is the structural problems that prevent any change. Trump is trying to make the changes, but less 50% of the Americans are truly conservative (but the leftists are all concentrated in a few places such as cities, West coast, and East coast) which is why a civil war and break up of the USA into regions is coming. Competition from Asia being more competitive due to lower taxation will force the conservatives in the USA to break away from the leftists. This economic pressure will become much more acute and noticeable after the US dollar peaks and international capital flows start heading back out of the USA and to Asia again (probably 2022 or so).

For instance, if all these other nations are having to do enormous currency devaluations, it could spark the biggest metals bull run ever seen and even blow up the jew banker metal manipulation. You seem to claim raising rates in the US will be dollar positive and metals negative, but it's more like the exact opposite.

Huh? Did you not see I wrote that gold will go to $5000 on this page?

But hell no, if you think gold is going to $50,000. Youre tinfoil hat looney if you think that.

Cryptocurrency is the much more significant change that is coming to the world.

The world has embraced western civilization, science, and technology, no matter where with a few pockets of resistance in some backward countries. The west will keep on leading by innovation of which there is very little in Asia and none elsewhere. Yes India and China may prevail in numbers, but will progress in a very western sense as their civilizations have contributed nothing over the last few hundred years that made an impact. Yoga and acupuncture perhaps?

China, Japan, South Korea, Japan (and increasingly India) have embraced science and technology. And theyre already moving ahead of the USA. For example, China has employed entanglement at a distance to have faster communication lines over longer distances than achieved any where else in the world. As the West collapses under oppressive taxes and debt collapse, our youth will be destroyed and their only future is to leave and head East. A massive brain drain ensues. Actually it has already started.

It must be very difficult for a boomer socialist with a colonialism pride to deal with the changing of the power structure of the world. But youre too smart to get stuck in wrong-headedness.

Trumps policies in favor of the rich and at the expense of the poor would fit very well in extreme darwinism favoring the strong and eliminating the poor. Very un- christian in essential.

Universal basic income seems to increase knowledge creation. The issue is the creation of a corrupt/inept/non-annealing centralized morass to administer it. If we could achieve it in a decentralized paradigm, then wed have a huge win.
