Interest Rate
🎢 Inverted Pendulum Analogy — Brilliant
You’re right:
- The system (economy) is nonlinear and unstable if not carefully balanced.
- When confidence is lost (in money’s value), everything tilts.
- It takes feedback control (e.g. central banks adjusting interest rates) to stabilize the system.
Kind of like actively balancing an inverted pendulum — constant small corrections needed. If the controller (central bank) is too slow or too aggressive, it can overshoot or crash the system.
