By “he” do you mean Mark Hanson? I dearly hope our Gov’t wouldn’t throw Taiwan into China’s dog dish in exchange for a few more months of buying our treasuries, but I wouldn’t put it past them. If they do, they can just shut up about “freedom” and “democracy” forever as far as I’m concerned. It’s already shameful the way corporate America ditched Taiwan in order to provide us with cheap(er) toys and poisoned cat food.
Karl Denninger really tells off China in this little epistle. Not sure how right Karl is but it’s kind of entertaining.

VC, I’m really sorry to hear it is USAA being so stiff with you on the 2nd. I’ve had them for my insurance for decades and been pretty happy with them. Very disappointing to hear them acting like that.
I agree with the other suggestion to start moving your banking to another bank (I’d recommend Union Bank or a solid credit union if you can get into one). It’s possible that as USAA sees your money quietly walking out of their accounts, they might relent.
