What does it matter if countries are renamed as states if they still hold sovereignty? The majority of "Western world" people are already wage slaves, the banks already own us, the police in (most countries) will still turn from protectors into minions of the militery in times of unrest and disaster. Nothing changes but in this case war may decrease as a move away from leaning on a militery economy. The intelligence community (10,000 strong in the US alone) will slowly fall away. There will be no need for warfare when trade routes are open and the only enemies to fight will be closed nation states such as North Korea. At least this way the rich folk and the corporations won't push for militery actions against countries that don't agree with their money making agenda and possibly leave to war. In my opinion Putin is correct and war is coming. The world reserve currency (dollor) will be replaced with gold, giving power to the east. The US will enter marshal law and this will destabalised the entire western world. The finncial crisis of 2008 was only a flesh would that the global banks confined to the EU which they couldn't treat, yet only postpone become a gangrenous mess for the west. After stuxnet unleashed who knows what cyber warfare is going on, unseen but one thing is blatently obvious and that actually warfare is on its way and if the world can agree on a one world system of government it may avert disaster. Maybe its a case of fucked if we do, fucked if we don't but I sure hope its a "do". Tin foil hat not needed. Please take a look at the state of the world on a global scale, economically and otherwise and come to your own conclusion before commenting with tin foil hat comments. There is no conspiracy. Just events that are becoming more apparant. Rant end. |
Are you using "wage slave" as a mindset or as in people who could not live without the wages they are paid?
Regardless, this rant doesn't make much sense either way. Putin is upset that NATO is placing missiles in Europe and is blowing hot air about it, threatening a nuclear war if things keep going the way they are. The US already has the ability to nuke any site in Russia if they so desired. Even if Russia was to start nuclear war, they would be retaliated against so quickly it would be over before it could start. The "war" would last days, at most.
If Russia was to nuke some other country, however, the rest of your post would go right out the window. Martial law certainly wouldn't be put into place, because the military would be focused on everything besides what's going on inside its own country's borders. The dollar certainly wouldn't be replaced by gold barring a complete global collapse, in which case all currency dissolves and neither East nor West has power; it'd be Africa of all places.
The bigger issue though is Mutually Assured Destruction. Basically, as long as the West and Russia both have nuclear weapons, neither one will be willing to nuke the other. It would mean assuredly having your own country devastated, at the very least. And despite however little you may think the wealthy care about the poor in society, the rich don't get paid if there are no poor/middle class individuals to keep the economy running. The last people who won't want a war are the upper class, because they're the ones with the most to lose should society become unstable.
