What does any of that have to do with my post?
If he favors a union of North America and wants to nudge it in that direction, would he go to the extreme of addressing a crisis in a way that would make it easier? Attempts to prop up financial institutins with a bail out increases government debt and devalues the dollar, possibly making it more palatable for the US to marry up with a common currency. In effect, using a crisis to achieve an outcome he desires.
I have no idea if there might be a connection, but there sure are some strange things happening and I am just wondering if there might be some deeper agendas at play.
