David’s right. Tipping point was in the past 30 days. It’s happening. Putin was the catalyst for the death blow to the postwar model.

Need to look at the cycles again now. Revisit demographics again. Not sure I have time for that kind of deep think.

When I said the correction would continue through 2014, and possibly through 2020, part of that statement was hopefulness. The human ‘forgetting curve’ is about four to six years. People have to ‘give up’ on prior habits and develop affinities for new ones, for a reformation of values to take root.

Now, technically speaking that cycle is about eight or nine years. (Flocking and schooling in a business cycle.) So, we should have one year left and see something serious in about 2015.

That’s coinciding with the departure of the (civilization-destroying) boomers (first generation of empowered proletarians).

That wave is coinciding with the collapse of anglo debt capacity.

And that wave is coinciding with the collapse of the postwar model (european american fantasy).

Demographics get pretty critical between 2020 and 2025.

Now, politically and intellectually you can start to see the change happening over the past year.

And technology is making an institutional solution to political conflict a possibility (just as all major innovations are technical innovations that assist in cooperation under greater complexity.)

Perfect storm.
