The collapse of America?
Here's the situation, due to population sizes, China and later India will most likely overtake the US in GDP size (but not GDP per capita). But will that mean that the US will collapse? Absolutely not. On the contrary the US will continue to strengthen with its NAFTA, Pacific and Eropean partners. And then by the end of the 21st century, due to projected decline in demographies in China and India, the US will regain its dominant position.
What is cautionary is the effect of global warming on countries, especially China and India? The US will be affected too but with its large land mass, they will not be as hard pressed as China and India in case of massive internal migration due to climate change.
You can muh GDP me all you like, but none of that will change the reality. Most of modern GDP is related to electronics as well as the (((service))) sector. Literal intangible bullshit.
Things that matter, like food, still cost the same percent of your salary as before. Living standards in America are hardly different from 1950. The only different is more (((electronics))), more (((human services))), and more Third World freeloaders.
I mean, California has the highest GDP in the country and it's a shithole. California is a giant subsided company. The state could not exist without government backing as their debt is astronomical in comparison to actual state funded businesses.
Calculate inflation properly and then you'll see no real growth since 2008. And now it's actually falling. You can bullshit and manipulate as much as you want, but people see their standard of living dropping.
GDP worship is pretty much an ultracapitalist mirage the average worker is very poorly represented by the GDP, often times a quickly rising GDP even represents a drop in the quality of life of normal citizens because it means that some companies grew quickly and brought gentrification as well as rising housing and living costs with them while only improvig the life for a small percentage of inhabitants.
The American economy is completely hollow from decades of outsourcing. Without the petrodollar and the military industrial complex propping up the dollar their economy would collapse. They import more finished goods than any other country and are heavily reliant on global supply chains. The average American doesn’t have $500 in the bank lmao.
Most of those profits are going directly to multinational corporations to develop more capital in China and elsewhere instead of America. China’s economic policies completely took advantage of America’s unchecked greed perfectly. They traded labor and short term profit for capital in China. They knew the profits would be too great for American corporations to ignore.
At the end of the day, China is the manufacturing hub of the entire world due to their economic policies and that will not change. It has a rapidly growing consumer economy. The American economy is collapsing and the idea that they “need” American money at this point is pure boomer cope. America’s economy is running on fumes and is unsustainable, which is why the FED is printing money and just handing it to corporations to stay afloat because they know that if the economy crashes, it is going to crash BIG and make ‘08 look like child's play. They are desperately trying to prevent that and keep it afloat but covid and the lockdowns has been another kick to the balls.
There is no "economy" in America, it is a financial cartel with a GDP number attached to it. A handful of bankers own all the money there and these bankers, through their system of usury enslave everyone below them. The FED is churning out billions of dollars every month to keep this sinking boat afloat or else Mighty Murica would have collapsed right during the Summer of Love itself.
Their debt has reached 40 trillion dollars and they are literally giving billions in money to the CCP in their infrastructure bill.
Also, Al Gore and his minions like you have been screaming about climate doomsday for how long now? "The Earth will die in 10 years, 20 years, 30 years REEEEE!!!!"
Every time you've been embarrassed. The climate has kept changing since the beginning of the Earth. It always has and it always will. You doomsayers have lost all your credibility.
