Wow.
This interview appeared on Geopolitics and Empire. Hrvoje Moric is the host and producer of the podcast.
The single best assessment I've heard on the collapse of American power. And it's alarming mainly for what the United States is willing to do to save face. Europe's collapse is its own fault. Like the U.S. is doing now with illegal immigrants coming through open borders, Europe did the same thing. There are no more ethnic Europeans; it's now an amalgam of immigrants. Lira, a Chilean, lives in the Ukraine. He warns Americans that its government, because it is made of crazies, is prepared to institute a government digital currency that tells you what you can buy, what you can't, and if they deem your behavior displeasing, they will shut off your account and demy you the ability to buy food. It will no longer be your money.
I liked his
characterizations of different countries to flee to, citing Central American
countries, like Guatemala, Belize, Costa Rica (too many Americans he
says). Says the violence in Columbia still persists, that Brazil has
problems, that select cities in Peru are quite nice, whereas Chile, his home country,
is a disaster. But he liked Uruguay and Bolivia. Hmmm. I know
nothing about these countries.
