The real global war is about money and who controls global trade, and therefore siphons off an unearned “cut” from all global trade.
Till recently, that was the western bankers (who are not aligned with the west, but merely reside here).
The trade was built on three things:
- An efficient financial/banking system which means minimum profits … which was true a long time ago
- Trust in that system, which takes decades if not centuries to establish
- Habitual use.
After the west stole the Russian money, trust in the western “system” has been taken away. New technology has vastly reduced the costs of financial transactions, but the parasitic financiers still keep taking the same massive cut from every transaction.
So, the only thing keeping the current financial system afloat is “habitual use”. In other words, it is in free fall to collapse … where “free” is how fast habitual usage dies away and other institutions and systems arise to take its place.
The world has changed. The west is now just one of many and others, with far more efficient economies and more innovation and rapidly overtaking the west. They will in future be driving the financial systems and either western finaciers will collapse, or they will rapidly change seeing a sea change in profitability. The old days where everyone in the city of London drove a very expensive car are gone. That kind if money is never going to be around again.
In contrast, there will be a new class of wealthy people, far fewer than the city of London, but wealthy none-the-less, and they will be in the Brics financial centres. And, Russia will have won.
Ukraine was not the battle …. but the coke smoking leaders were clueless.
