Adding to this; there is also no evidence that the US's politicians care about financial incentives as applied to the US government.

If it affects them personally then they'd jump like a cat on a stove; but if it only affects the budget they aren't going to respond to any incentive.

If the US was being influenced by financial incentives it wouldn't be doing many of the things it does. Like tax cuts or spending more money.

The monetary policy of the USA is insane these days. Tax cut and spend is here for the moment. Taxes will go up but so will spending...
