@greyor @Wetrix it could also be that the parallel is with the Gilded Age of the late 19th / early 20th century. That ended with the Great Depression...
Sadly the US has reach around the world that if it implodes there's a serious chance it takes down the whole world with it. Or if it carries on business as usual and cook the planet to death
@michel_slm @greyor if it does is the US's own fault.
They have monopoly laws which they COMPLETELY IGNORE like the rest of the constitution.
Hello Microsoft, Shitbook, Comcast, time Warner, Goldman Sachs and like a 100 other monopolies that shouldn't exist but they do.
The US has fucked themselves by being bought and sold like the coarperate whores they are by lobbyist and special interest groups that literally pay to rewrite or ignore the laws and constitution.
