  • To win the cultural and intellectual battle, Europe must staunchly defend its model,

    There is no argument in the article for why this should work in the future.

    Europe profited from post colonial structures.

    Redistribution is a political decision and possible to continue forever. But was redistribution the source of our prospetity, or just a bribe to buy our silence so that the elite could keep plundering the world?

    With competition from China, we can’t keep selling our technology above fair prices. Without those profits will people stay willing to share? Will we be able to maintain culture and education?

    Divide and conquer. Why fight the entire countries or even the union of those three and not some fraction?

    The last time the US, Russia and China fought together they fought Nazis, not Germany. Europe should only fight fractions of those countries.


  • because it’s kust that more easier to breed money when you already have so much.

    Warren Buffett says no. To invest billions is more difficult because high growths opportunities with high margins rarely exist in that price range.

    Case in point — corpos like Microsoft and Ubisoft.

    Are they stupid or do they optimize for different constraints? MS could have introduced AI for surveillance and not for growth.

    So when the crisis finally comes, you won’t be able to properly analyze the situation.

    I can’t disprove this. However I think that some are intelligent enough and with billions at their disposal they could make themselves heard.










  • It started differently. The federal government of the US originally only collected tariffs. US history shows what is going to come for Europe.

    The Euro can’t be stable under current conditions. A unified EU budget is the only way to stabilize the inevitably stumbling economies. It’s just a matter of time. Like other things, the citizens will be surprised but will accept the necessary reform to end the crisis. They won’t stage a rebellion when people point out that the crisis was constructed. Instead they are ready to walk into the next one for the next change.
