Whilst Putin and Russia, BRICS nations and south east Asia in particular are working as diligently as they can toward a post-hegemonic world order, what are the anarchists planning? The P/E, debt to equity, national debt and private debt levels in the USA are simply not sustainable past 2024 mathematically, and most likely 2020 or earlier. That is, when you can no longer make interest payments, you go bankrupt, and if you're the FED printing as much QE money as you can possibly get away with, when you hit the wall, you take the entire currency with you. Earlier emails have linked to graphs which show this tax receipts vs US govt debt wall has an absolute end date of 2024, but most likely confidence in the US dollar will collapse well prior to then. So. Turmoil and upheavel when that moment comes. And some are well prepared to survive short to medium term food, water and shelter problems. Many are not. Some others have been and continue to put away tonnes of gold (Russia, China and other nations) whilst the sleepy democratic upstanding nice ones doddle along as though nothing's changed, like Canada who sold out 99.999% of their state gold reserves. The good news is that during such upheavel and crises, opportunities arise for very limited numbers of individual humans - mostly for those who prepared in advance. Now, those who are more than one can make more hay when the opportunities arise. To the hard core anarchists, the pioneers (not the settlers, and probably not even the squatters, only the hard core pioneers) - if you want to sieze the day, the best way to do so is to plan well in advance. My thoughts? Well, for broad acceptance of any political system of human interaction, broad acceptance (by those you communicate with in your broader communities) is of course required. Amidst the chaos and turmoil survival will dominate a human's every thought. Any advance planning, to be successful, must embrace the realities to come. Those who will be able to speak with clarity, having imbibed the understandings of the existing foundations (constitutions, amendments, money and its control), and considered well possible futures, may be able to inspire others to "a better future". But that can hardly be possible by sitting around hoping for someone else to do so. "Better" foundations must be practical, straightforward to the mind - you will have to communicate them with sheep after all, and ought be discussed and thrashed out and options and alternatives considered, well in advance. Community arises in interaction of humans, be it action, communication or contention (verbal and physical). Without powerfully simple yet constructive conversations arising between millions of people (USA has ~300 million population), then a new system shall be imposed, instituting babylon once again. And the sheep shall be shorn. What futures can even be communicated? We must start somewhere...
