calfoxwc Posted June 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/11/the-next-economic-crisis-could-cause-a-global-conflict-heres-why As monetary tightening reveals the vulnerabilities in the real economy, the collapse of asset-price bubbles will trigger another economic crisis – one that could be even more severe than the last, because we have built up a tolerance to our strongest macroeconomic medications. A decade of regular adrenaline shots, in the form of ultra-low interest rates and unconventional monetary policies, has severely depleted their power to stabilize and stimulate the economy. If history is any guide, the consequences of this mistake could extend far beyond the economy. According to Harvard’s Benjamin Friedman, prolonged periods of economic distress have been characterized also by public antipathy toward minority groups or foreign countries – attitudes that can help to fuel unrest, terrorism, or even war. For example, during the Great Depression, US President Herbert Hoover signed the 1930 Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, intended to protect American workers and farmers from foreign competition. In the subsequent five years, global trade shrank by two-thirds. Within a decade, World War II had begun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't understand, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted June 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Meanwhile - Iran is daring the world to come after them - because they think their friend Russia will back them up. Iranian mines - one seen on the hull of one of the oil tankers. It isn't Iran's first mine rodeo. They aren't disrupting our oil, it's global oil, global economy. http://news.trust.org/item/20190613175123-8j3jx Unexploded device spotted on one of attacked oil tankers -U.S. source by Reuters Thursday, 13 June 2019 18:09 GMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
