Decline and Fall

Post by Typhoon »

FT - Always beware a declining superpower
Even under normal leadership, a status-anxious US would be lashing out
Prediction is very difficult, especially if it's about the future.

~ Niels Bohr, After a Danish proverb

Not being a professional pundit, I'm skeptical of pundits who have and/or are predicting the imminent decline and fall of either the USA or PR China.

Both have serious problems going forward.
In my view who will end up as the dominant superpower will depend on who screws up the least.

FT itself is a perfect example of declining leadership 😂

One way I rate an online newspaper is by the quality of the posts in the comments section as it a reflection of their target audience.
Those of the FT are second to none.

These days, even the WSJ seems to be read by retards.

There is no publication for multipolar mercantilism or asset based economies.
