War or Depression?
Seems like we are hurtling toward economic meltdown. Do you think this might happen independently and we go through a depression or will the globe opt for another major war to distract/resolve the economic issues? History generally shows that when most of the world is in serious economic distress, everyone starts fighting. Are we seeing the start of that with Russia/Ukraine and China/Taiwan?

The Russia situation makes you wonder if this is what it felt like in the 30's and 40's as Germany just slowly moved into all of the other countries....Clod Hopper wrote:Seems like we are hurtling toward economic meltdown.

War resets economies
Russia and China are absolutely going to make the conquests that they desire. Will we do anything about it? Do we even have the capacity to do anything about it at this point?

Bringing this back because the correct answer now appears to be: "D - All of the above."
Courage is knowing it might hurt, and doing it anyway.
Stupidity is the same.
And that’s why life is hard.
