We will not be able to gauge any future scenarios with out the impact of ethno-generational conflict. Old white boomers with liberal tax and spend policies, cushy government jobs or union sinecures will not long be able to maintain crushing tax burdens on youthful blacks, browns, and asians without strong political sanction.
In demographic terms it is the mass of very religious and conservative whites that are maintaining their replacement birthrates while the europhillic liberals are imitating a dying Europe. Thus the native white population will find itself even more divided between the producers and consumers. "Going Galt" will become the sign of the times as folks decouple themselves from the grid (think homeschooling, buying gold & guns, self generation of power and other utilities and cashing out their businesses.
Soon there will be not enough young people or immigrants (legal or otherwise) to support the government ponzi schemes.
This along with the debt being monetized WILL cause a major incident like we have discussed. The generation component will come into play when young folks, ladened with crippling taxes, choked by regulation, see a privileged elder elite (I.e. the political/media/government classes) demanding even more sacrifice from them!!!
I also concur that there will be no geographic component like the last Civil War, but I shall state for the record that there are no red states or blue states. This is a Red Nation with a few blue enclaves and urban open sewers that will disgorge their poison once the system of bribes, corruption, social spending and identity politics collapses.
One thing WS, before others misunderstand our conversation or brand me as a racist, I am a patriot, a black man and a loyal citizen. I say these things to warn others and raise their awareness before it becomes too late to change things.
I will pick this up tomorrow.
Thanks for that - I’ll order a copy of that book.
