      The problem with the US is structural, (they managed to elect that orange turd twice) also it’s still not clear whether they’ll even have a next presidential election.

        Horrible from me to state the next but, hopefully, that country crashes so fast and hard, the people will stage the French Revolution, Second Edition, Revised, Updated and Improved.

        That alone would speed in not only a substantial shift for the country but for entirety of humanity, forcing extremely fast cultural and political change.

          Careful what you wish for, given the level of brainwashing in large parts of the US population, a revolution could just push another madman to the top, or even be used by the current madman on top to topple the remainders of democracy and rule of law.

            Again, this is horrible from me to say this, but if that was to happen, the US would turn into another Venezuela. Not Russia, Venezuela. But with too many corporations trying to make business as usual. And when politians mess with money, they get annoying. And less valuable.

                How much time can we credibly risk that military complex will be sustainable, if such scenario unfolds?

                Food for the troops, fuel for machines, parts, ammunition cost money. It’s one thing to be North Korea but the US have a too sophisticated military complex.

                And I risk at some point civil unrest would begin.

    US: You need to stand on your own! You’re pathetic!

    Also the US: We didn’t mean it! Sit back down!
