—“Like can we talk about the political and economic state of the world right now? 🙄”— @WarMonitors
I dunno about you folks but these are ‘interesting times’ and at least from afar the state of the world is providing entertainment value and slowly encouraging all of us to abandon the mythos of the postwar era, the Pax Americana, and to accept the return to world normal conditions of a conflict of civilizations.
Now, contrary to the doomers, the more chaotic the world the better it is and more profitable it is for the USA.
The only question is, whether by intent or accident, the world that is dependent upon Pax Americana steps up to absorb the costs of the world system the brits and americans created – out of sheer self preservation.
It’s an interesting roll of the dice. But the USA in this case is the House. The House can’t lose either way.
Sorry.
That’s reality.
