That’s called strong arm geopolitics, it’s uncivil. Instead in the name of diplomacy and favorable neighbor behavior it’s better to set them up on a modest payment plan and add resource sharing in place of unmanageably high interest. Then you take the repayed debt and the resale of resources and put that money not into the general fund but rather a reserve account to be used as a “bank” for the purpose of lending. If the fed interest is at 6% interest you loan for the USA bank at 6.25% over a longer duration and use the .25% to repay our debt. A universal 10% tariff on energy sold globally goes into the USA bank also, end of year surplus would be massive. Now the IRS and the federal reserve, they can go. Instead implement a “consumption tax in the place of federal income tax at point of sale, this makes everyone a tax payer based on what they spend not what they earn and includes illegals, pimps, people who leverage donations etc etc. we’d be debt free in a very short time.
