Causing financial ruin and disruption to everyone and everything as a whole, even if it causes everybody to equally become less wealthy, by devaluing the dollar to 10% of its previous purchasing power, for example, creates more poverty, thereby making the rich more powerful.

A 500 billionare's net worth devalued to 50 billion is much more powerful in a world where a common person's 200k net worth is devalued to 20k. It means more failed small businesses, it means we can pay more money for decreasing choices. For example, closing rural USPS means you will want to buy from Amazon through their "free shipping" prime membership rather than pay $25 carrier shipping from anyone else, as one example. We become beholden to the powerful and wealthy corporations, they "help us save money" during these times. Our remaining available spending power is shifted towards fewer people.

It's worth looking at the great depression, how some wealthy people survived it by being conservative with their finances, while those with risky investments lost it all. It's also worth looking into the causes of the great depression and the lesser 2008 and others, and the regulations and policies that were created to mitigate them in the future.

It seems the very policies (financial deregulation) that cuased financial ruin in the past are presently being re-enacted, and, the very regulatory bodies created to prevent them (CFPB etc) are being dismantled.

So it just seems to me that we are headed towards an economic depression not because of any specific circumstance, but by design. Several families -- The Rockefeller, Mellon, Ford, and Kennedy families, for example, became even *more* powerful and wealthy because of the great depression. They had the Liquidity and diversification of portfolio to wait it out, and, when conditions return to normal, the reserves to rebuild new business during a time when their detractors are financially ruined and unable to fairly compete.

If I weren't personally affected, I would think this is pretty cool, that an old Cult of the Dead Cow internet zine author would become the philosophical engine driving a US Presidency to destroy the economy. These wikipedia articles aren't doing a very good job of describing it but it's a start if you haven't heard of either of them before.
