They like to cause a depression, wait long enough for everyone to forget that they caused the depression, let the regime change once or twice, then fix the issue to remind you that you need them. It's a lot like the whole "pay me to ensure you don't have an unfortunate accident" where then if you don't pay they can cause the unfortunate accident.

If they cause a depression then the next regime change will be away from the United States. The USA got into its dominant position because it was the only major power left standing after World War II and has kept it since then through inertia. If that inertia is disrupted it's not coming back.
