I would give the wealth ample time for them to get out of the US$ dominated assets while I am pumping M3 even crazier than those in Weimar Republic in 1923.

Then, I would render the total collapse of the entire middle-class so that they can be drafted to fight in upcoming resource wars.

I would definitely play the key role of transforming the current system into a total facist one, so that I can please my masters.

and finally, I would make sure a painful death of the empire.

As Ben Franklin said, "We give a republic if you can keep it." Sorry Ben, we are unliky to keep it.

Ban negative amort loans. Then raise capital requirements on real estate loans by banks. That would starve capital out and force a recession without raising interest rates.

But raise int. rates 50 basis points anyway.
