IMHO, the laws of nature predict the triumph of a multi-polar, open economy. This is because corruption breeds incompetence and absolute corruption breeds absolute incompetence, which eventually destroys itself.

Matthew has uncovered evidence of this in the historical record of US relations with and influence by the British Empire, with periodic upwellings of moral integrity such as Franklin, Hamilton, the abolitionists, anti-imperialists and FDR's anti-fascist beliefs. But the current evidence is overwhelming. Americans have been taught to point fingers at foreign governments, but there is no country in the world whose eco-political system is as corrupt as the US. From Nuland's machinations in Ukraine to Fauci's contrived scamdemic, from MIC to Big Pharma, the incompetence is now obvious to the citizens. The US can not defeat Russia or China militarily because its elites have de-industrialized and weakened the US itself. The criminals may indeed be capable of one more stolen election in 2024, but the states are now fighting back to nullify the DC rot. This can only accelerate as the fruits of corruption ripen. The only question is whether the defeat of the criminals can be accomplished relatively peacefully or the full scale violence of civil war or nuclear armaggedon will be required.
