The late eighties, early nineties : the Warschau pact bloc collapses under the pressure of an apparently triumphant western free market system. Widespread poverty and some exceptionally large fortunes result.
The early two thousand and tens : the dollar bloc and the euro bloc collapse under the pressure of the excesses of the free market system. Widespread poverty results ; and who stands to gain ?
Maybe Russia ; and most certainly China.
The Americans know that. They are trying to build their defenses against that threat, but their economy and finances already are heavily dependent on Chinese goodwill.
We in the West have painted ourselves in a corner.
We are entering a new era. But how will all this end ?
