  1. But a country/culture has to have a replacement generation or it all stops. That is just reality.

  2. India has equipment from everybody including the US. Indian choose to buy where they wanted from

  3. It is not a reactive current affairs channel.

  4. The audio is fine.

  5.  @patrickweaver1105  All that chip fab is based on US technology. Even ASML functions on that US infrastructure. The chips that everybody seems to think is so special is fundamentally a 60 year old US technology.

  6.  @noodlyappendage6729  70% of the Irish American population are catholic. Of the 30% that make up other Irish Americans such as Ulster Scots still adhere to a culture of Ireland. You will find that infusion goes back the other way as well with Ulster Scots traditions being absorbed by catholic Irish Americans. Funny that all the devisions that occur in Irish culture simply not present in Irish American culture.

  7. Japan has an economy that has manufacturing that is focused on automation and exports. Japan has lots of products that are kept low in price.

  8.  @gregorymalchuk272  US gas is not about to run out. That is absurd.

  9.  @antpoo  You think a defence force is the last thing Irelands needs?

  10. So how are these robots going to buy products and services?

  11. What makes you think the young think of their future? Most young people think they will be young for ever.

  12. You’re confident the weather will be fine. Listen to what you are saying. When has there ever been confidence in weather.

  13. That gas reserve only guarantees that the system does not collapse. It does not guarantee industrial energy stability.

  14. German for several decades has not been at population replacement rate. A 25% reduction in population of workers is going to cause chaos.

  15. It is not just the political parties that are to blame for the apathy. Australia was later the welfare state game and is now in the middle of a welfare state frenzy that is being driven by the media. Any political party that deviates from this get trial by media.

  16. I cannot see Mexico having the resources and capital unless the US backs the project.

  17.  @Vmurmur  How does automation buy products.

  18. It is market jargon that helps to keep the conversation simply in a very complex field. The chips do not actually have 7nm transistors as that would name molecular scale devices. Do not be so harsh when having these conversations about chips. It is just good communications description to say nano meter.

  19.  @AutoMattOn  Trump was not the candidate.

  21.  @BasePuma4007  Such changes have to be slow and gradual to allow those coming in to assimilate. Trying to do it in 10 years is a disaster in the making.

  22. Earth quakes require tectonic movement and fracking would have zero impact on that. Lighting a match would be about as impactful.

  23. What most of you do not understand is that heating houses is not the actual crisis. I suspect some of you do not listen to or have read all of Peters work.

  24. Not even close to being true. Do not confuse a career with academic qualifications.

  25.  @TomTomicMic  It is not entirely true that there cost is lower. As a population becomes more elderly the costs of healthcare sky rocket so most of their budget is actually focused on older care.

  26.  @tallshort1849  US has a 95% insurance coverage which most people can use private clinics. Most people in the UK would love access to private clinics.

  27. There is always going to be a human that is creative and makes something people love.

  28. Australia will not move forward until it is at crisis point. The politics of the welfare state is too heavily baked in for change at this point.

  29.  @guyhickey3343  The US processes the Oil for Canada.

  30. US has large and most developed reserves in the world.

  31. In the not so distant future you will be able to choose what actor or director is in your movie night and you will be able to choose what type of story you want.

  32. Most people that focus on US debt tend to ignore US level of wealth and productivity.

  33. Peak oil is dead and has been for a long time.

  34. I think they are sports glasses designed for the snow and reflection.

  35. The initial cost and supply inconsistency that arise cause problems with inflation.

  36.  @bk99911  EV’s are junk. And most people cannot afford them.

  37. So whose economy is this new digital currency going to be based on?

  38. None of that policy will create better food.

  39. These things take decades to play out.

  40.  @thermite547  Once a decline starts it will cause instability which will feed into the decline and so on. In a normal economy that has a stable population an economic crisis has a balance which is a productive population that can buy and produce.

  41. The European company you are alluding to is ASML that operates on US licences and have US clearance to use that US technology.

  42. What is he wrong about exactly?

  43. He means super power in that region not on the world stage.

  44.  @mntlblok  How he knows that is by the current configuration of the US Navy and also the cultural state of American. The US does not have enough vessels to patrol all the danger zones and what it has in planning will not fill that void. The US is going to work with local partner Navy forces but those are going to be very specific.

  45. What is there positive to say about a European demographic collapse?
    3
  46. None of that will counter the collapse in European market activity.

  47. The EU needs rebooting. It never should have strayed from being a regional states zone. There are massive structural problems with CAP, fishing, euro and the weak ineffective parliament. It maybe beyond repair at this point. The vast majority of European countries are in demographic collapse so the pain of that will be felt equally through out the region

  48.  @jkin1447  What makes you think a society can just replace its lack of children with foreign cultures?

  49. TMSC exist on a licence agreement where the US state department gives permission. RISC processing is a US developed system.

  50. It is to stop the market from being flooded.
