The US is the where everyone’s money flies to when their countries are deemed “risky.” Yet, those countries are able to get all the investors they need to prop up their governments through “negative interest rates.”

If the US is more solid than any other country in the world, we should be able to have the deepest negative interest rate.

That’s because those countries banned cash first, so there’s no way for the investors to actually withdraw their money to get the higher zero interest rate of cash.

How many of those countries restrict their companies from moving lots of money overseas? Can BMW move a hundred million Euros to the US or do they have to accent the German negative rate?
