DEFINITIONS: FRAGILITY OF AN ADVANCED ECONOMY

Q&A: –Curt, what do you mean by an ‘advanced economy’?—

The more dependent the citizenry is on complex networks of production involving distributed capital, resources, and knowledge.

In other words the degree to which the store of necessary consumption can be interrupted before the expansion of revolt over basic needs..

In other words, people cannot return to the farm in the village to survive, and have no choice but to revolt.

The more ‘efficient’ an economy in ‘modern economic terms’ which means the more risk it absobs in favor of discounts on consumption, the more vulnerable it is.

The siezure of the british empire’s policing of world finance and trade, the defense of europe during its rebuilding, the prosecution of the cold war and communism, and the consequential prosecution of world islamism as the replacement for communism, while importing vast numbers of a new third-world underclass, – have caused an overextension of the economy and a weakening of civic bonds necessary to endure shocks and reversals.

Minor disruptions in distribution of basic goods (commercial rail, roadway trucking, consumer gasoline, natural gas piplines, electricity transformers, internet phone and cable boxes and wires, and water pipelines, when combined with multiple, randomly set fires, each of which provides an opportunity to harm or kill repair workers and the police that attempt to defend them, will cause vast economic catastrophe even if prosecuted by a small number of people.

if any given city were to experience as few as 25 people aggressively pursuing these tactics for 120 days, the military will have to intervene, and the government will lose what remaining credibility it has, and people will, after 180-270 days, be exhausted.

This is enough time for the military and political opportunists in the world to seize openings due to weakness that the Obama administration has created through deprivation and reduction, and the demand for both internal and external force will be unbearable, and the citizenry will either end up in the streets, or demand immediate action.

The goal of any such action is to force the military to take control and to implement constitutional, legal, and policy changes sufficient to restore order.

The strategy is quite simple. Lay out demands that a majority of the population will accept, that will generate opportunity for change, and opportunity for multiple classes and groups to benefit from.
