And where we differ is that I expect the US economy will crash and the US will have a USSR style collapse. It’s really important to separate the base from the superstructure here. All these things like market manipulation and other machinations require a stable foundation at the bottom, and that’s been eroded for many decades now. And no amount of financial tricks can change the material reality because you can’t just wish things into being in the real world.
