100s of Billions of Dollars Spent On the War Economy

America and her allies are stepping into a very thick forest and they will be lost in no time.

There is an unsustainable debt crisis on the horizon.

  • The dollar's supremacy in the world is fading.
  • The economy is shifting from the West.
  • Internal factions risk tearing countries apart.
  • Unemployment off the charts, crime rate through the roof, portions of society ignoring laws, no social safety net, pensions eroded or devoured by a volatile stock market and the plummeting dollar.
  • North America is losing global influence. Multinational corporations are not investing in North America due to the falling dollar and sociopolitical and economic revolts and instability are rampant in most of the cities.
  • In fact, cities are extremely dangerous war zones of anarchy.

Power, if not handled well, is a force of self-destruction. It tempts empires to believe that they are invincible, blinds them to the slow decay at their foundations, and, ultimately, leads them to collapse. We have read Jared diamonds book, Collapse: on how societies choose to fail or to succeed.

North America stands on the brink of this fate. Its obsession with dominance through military capability, its economically extravagant strategy, and inability to adapt with changing global patterns of power or spheres of influence are the reasons leading to a singular conclusion, fragmentation is inevitable.

The first cracks in an empire never appear as catastrophes but rather as creeping economic burdens. The United States, with its unconstrained defense spending, is accumulating debt at a pace that no superpower can sustainably maintain. By 2030, its national debt will likely be over $50 trillion. Interest payments alone will consume massive wedges of government revenue, forcing ruthless cuts in domestic expenditure, as we are starting to see such actions/cuts by Elon Musk with the approval of the Trump regime.

Infrastructure will crumble, social programs will dwindle, and the formerly prosperous middle class will find itself trapped between stagnant wages and rising costs and unemployment.

Inflation, the quiet killer of buying power, will continue to march relentlessly on. Global market instability fueled by wars will make oil, food, and necessities costly. The Federal Reserve and Bank of Canada, anxious to shore up their economies, will increase interest rates, making home ownership an impossibility for millions. The economy will decelerate, but survival will cost more.

But instead of taking a different route, North America will double down on militarism.

The United States will build up its forces in Eastern Europe, pouring Ukraine and NATO partners with weapons, and setting up for a destined clash with China in the Pacific. Canada, under pressure from NATO, will shift more focus to defense at the expense of its already, strained healthcare and infrastructure. What's the end result? North America spending more on war than stability, more on external conflict than domestic prosperity. Many universities and colleges end up closing due to lack of student's not able to be approved for student loans to attend post-secondary.

As that takes place, the rest of the world will soon do the same. BRICS nations, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, will bolster their economies, exchanging goods in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The previously unchallenged dominance of the American financial system will be eroded. Imports will be expensive, inflation will increase, and faith in the dollar will be lost. The tremendous power of the United States was always in its ability to print its own currency, when that dream starts to fizzle, the outcome will be devastation.

As the 2030s unfold, the chessboard of the world will be a completely different one. The United States will no longer be the only superpower, but an declining power attempting to hold on to its supremacy, it's hegemony.

The West will face a crisis it cannot foresee, an inability to compete. While China and the emerging powers have dedicated decades to building infrastructure, technological progress, and economic self-sufficiency, North America has spent its wealth on endless wars. The consequence will be long-term economic stagnation. The U.S. and Canada will not be able to catch up, limited by their own misguided priorities.

Decline is rarely passive. It lights fires of chaos from within. As the economic divide increases, expect fatal political cleavages in America and Canada. The already polarized United States can expect secessionist movements to break out, spearheaded by Texas, California, and other politically divided regions. Canada, traditionally seen as a secure alternative to its more aggressive neighbour to the south, may fracture along economic and cultural fault lines as Quebec and Alberta test their allegiance to a failing federal government.

Native sovereignty movements, long neglected by national governments, will gain unprecedented momentum, fueled by federal abandonment and economic grievance. Those very same leaders who have put foreign wars ahead of the welfare of their own nation will struggle to contain internal unrest that they have encouraged.

By the time that the U.S. empire has finally collapsed, the world won't be geographically focused any more on North America. The power will already have shifted to the east, towards the wealthier economies of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Great Western military blocs like NATO that were once dominant will collapse, and Canada will be forced to re-invent itself in a world where the hegemony of America is not an absolute guarantee.

North America will ultimately turn away from war based economy but only after experiencing profound economic depression.

The United States, incapable of maintaining ceaseless wars, will be compelled worldwide into withdrawal, not as a strategic imperative, but out of economic bankruptcy. Physical infrastructure throughout North America are in shambles, no investment on roads, bridges, water and sanitation systems, or electrical grids.

The decline of power is a play written by history itself. Rome, Britain, the Soviet Union, all collapsed not at the hands of outside forces, but due to their own arrogance, their own incompetence, their own lack of understanding of reality. People will look back 10-15 years and they will ask, "Why didn't we see this coming when Trump came into office?"
