Is capitalism about to collapse?

If it does it will be replaced by something worse if a world war doesn't intervene. Think about who controls everything. If they are not viscerally threatened they will simply concoct another scheme to enslave and impoverish the masses.

The good news ... it's only a life sentence. You eventually leave this planet of idiots.

Re: Economy and Finance (4.00 / 2)

I suppose a world war would not be manipulated by your supposed controllers of everything?

How about putting in some careful thought before hitting the Post button?

Re: Economy and Finance (none / 0)

The problem with that idea is that a world war, even if it avoided nuclear involvement, would involve mainland USA because if anywhere is gonna have a war, the US is high on the list.

and the rich do not want war in their own backyard as wars are messy and there might be collateral damage the rich do not want.

So, there won't be a war.

keep to the Fen Causeway
