  2. Neoliberalism (rentier capitalism) is leading to the West to eat its own. Indeed the West, with the United States being an integral part, appears to be fracturing with the Americans seemingly intent on going their own way and treating western Europe the way western Europe treats eastern Europe (as inferior junior partners). Western Europe may soon find its privileged position within the USA's hierarchy of nations to no longer exist, the USA treating them in exactly the same way they treat all other (non‐western, non‐white, non‐Christian) countries. In fact, the USA may actively seek the breakup of the European Union and the weakening, even balkanisation, of the continent similar to what it's done in the Middle East.

  3. It took the better part of 75 years to destroy the Soviet Union, can the United States wait that long to repeat its success? And China, a country on the rise... how long will it take?

  4.  @Durnyful  Western governments aren't really swayed by their electorates either and no more care for what the majority of the people think than the countries labelled by them as autocracies. On anything that really matters the elites get their way, (barring coups d'état and the like).
