You're probably correct in your assessment, but the bottom line is that ALL countries eventually collapse, no matter what model they adopt. Even those that claim an ancient lineage, like China, have reinvented themselves multiple times, just keeping the name.

It's a mental illness, like hoarding. Most people know when to quit, but these people don't, and that's because they have an abnormal compulsion to keep accumulating more, even though they already have more than they or their descendants could ever spend.
We shouldn't let our nation and planet go to Hell because everybody is afraid to force these Psychopathic Oligarchs to take medication for their mental illness, or even say No to their unreasonable demands. The result is that we end up with people so wealthy that they can finance their most psychotic fantasies.
Exactly. SS is the easiest problem in DC to solve.
They don't have to remove the cap, just raise it. Right now, it's around $167K. Just raise it to $250K, or $500K, or $1 million. That would make it solvent again for decades.
He didn't get elected, they rigged the election. He won ALL the battleground states? That stretches credulity wildly.
Supposedly there were MILLIONS of people who voted a straight Democratic ticket, but with Trump at the top, and they put him over the top. However, I've never met or read any statements from a single one of those alleged voters, not one. Both Dems and MAGAs claim the election was fair & square, so who are these split voters? Where are they? Produce five of them. For that matter, produce just one.
They don't exist. The election was rigged.
I'm cool with that, too.
It's his personal Venmo, he'll make sure the money gets to the right place, you can trust him.
When I was a kid in the 60s, I remember hearing calls to "Question Authority," and I took it to heart, and it became a part of my personality. It's natural for me to be skeptical of anything I hear from any authority.
They are all evil, so just choose the cheapest one.
Start reading about business, and start thinking about a micro business you can start with very little money, and start doing it. Never forget that the ONLY goal is to make a profit, because that is your income.
This is a perfect example of why we have to confiscate the bulk of the fortunes of Sociopathic Oligarchs.
We have this guy operating his own foreign policy in a very sensitive war with nuclear weapons in the mix. The rest of the world shouldn't have to be at the mercy of his arrogance and hubris, waiting for him to get bored with this game, and move onto the next one, hopefully before he blows up the planet.
He has been proven to be massive national and global security threat, who will only become more dangerous as he hoards more money. Just strip his citizenship, confiscate his money and his companies, and deport him to South Africa. Then use his example as a threat to other Sociopathic Oligarchs.
I want a roadkill-eating, worm-brained psychopathic junkie out of my food, can I have that?
Brought down by his own allies. It happens more often than people think. Many world leaders have been assassinated by their own side, or even highly trusted associates.
