| #1 The only quibble I have with this analysis is the author's contention that an economic collapse in the west will be the groundwork for further radicalization of politics. Radical politics in the west have always been a "leisure" activity. When you are safe and secure in your economic circumstances, the craziest in the society will embrace politics that ultimately lead to economic destruction. When that economic destruction in a strong economy doesn't take place, well then, that is proof things need to change! |
