How the fuck is that going to work? Buy our bonds or we'll turn up with tanks and soldiers? Who are they even going to attack in this scenario? This is completely unhinged.

I was thinking more like making military buy government bonds with their huge military budget but it doesn't make sense still

You take then soldiers and you march on down to the market where they sell bonds and you tell them listen here the interest rates need to go down we have to buy more bonds and it's very bad for the interest rates make them smaller so i can buy more and the gestapo taser slaps a small child so they know he's serious about the market.
