Jim, My expertise is to spend time into the minds of the
criminally insane, those born as. Those comments i made
in the past months that predicted that in 5-10 years Russia
will obtain equal status as the United States using a down grade
of the US and upgrade of Russia, while during the same time
China will disintegrate into a thousand parts and become as it
was a thousand years ago with a thousand small empires.
I looked for that post on this thread, and Russ's and the GPM,
but could not find it. But there are no "deep thoughts" behind this
except that China's currently made semi-modern of manufacturing
and middle class strength would collapse totally in a few years
after the United States starts to collapse into a deep depression
that takes other world economies along with it. This is based on
your many detailed posts & articles that i gather the impression
that the US Dollar now is very sick and has been inserted into most all
other nations economies either directly or indirectly. As for Russia,
to me it has a sad and troubled history that in a quirk of inside-out,
that which was its downfall in hundreds of years of history will become
a strong and stable and positive force to make gains as all other nations
make loses, and there is no major or complex theories behind my thoughts
about Russia, just a simple "learn from past errors" as the current
government of Russia is Putin, a once senior KGB man, that now has
the power of the military, and a recognition that a government forced
economy failed all the past hundred of years, and he now has the means
to put into control of the Russian economy a power and very able
group of business men that can get the job done, a.k.a. the Mob,
and they can co-exist such that 1+1 is greater than 2 in that the Mob
wants the wealth of the businesses, and this way rather than do it
using the USA Chicago Al Capon early 1900s fighting the Feds,
the Russian Mob will own the businesses of the Russian economy,
and in a twist, pay protection money to the Russian government
so that the Russian military can be built up to world class again.
Thus, the Mob is not working outside the law since it will legally own
the businesses in Russia, and the people in the Mob "know" business,
and the Russian government leaders will allow a "free" market
and not interfer with government stupidness, just so that the Mob
pays taxes of good amounts. Then the governemnt leaders of Russia
can do what they are experts in, and that is to control the populace using brutal force with individual rights non existance.
The common person in Russia will experience the same thought control,
and fear of the police knoking on their doors and taken away never
to be heard of again just as they did for a hundred years, except now
their standard of living for all will increase greatly because the Mob knows business,
and eventhought they will steal most of the workers paycheck,
the Russian economy will buzz x10 as it is today. Also, as everyone knows
Russia has great natural resources, and as it also knowned,
the Russian people are highly educated and could overnight
duplicate their science into practical engineering feats once
the Russian government politician step aside and let the Mob
take over the industries. China has a totally different set-up.
