Is There a New Golden Age on the Horizon?

By Rich Kozlovich

There's something I find really interesting.  There are those who are really smart and really successful, many of them economists who also believe we are on the verge of a "Golden Age" if we can crush the deep state and drain the leftist fever swamps.  Crushing the deep state and draining the leftist fever swamps will make a huge difference admittedly, but a “golden age”? I doubt that.

I've always believed in historical cycles, and I've read three books on the subject, and while the writers all have their own terminology and odd ways of creating coherence through connectives, they all come to the same conclusion. We’re in an end cycle, and all end cycles involve massive economic downturns, and violence, and much of the violence and economic folly is the result of embracing multiculturalism and globalism.  

Remember how Henry Kissinger promoted globalism and multiculturalism as the answer to the world's economic and social issues, and Western nations bought into that insanity?  Well, I recently published a Kissinger article, Henry Kissinger: Time is The Great Leveler of Truth, outlining what a disaster Henry Kissinger was for the world.  

Europe made a grave mistake by listening to this nitwit and the man he mentored, Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum, which is in fact pushing on the world a form of viral neo-communism.  At the end of his life he proclaimed it was a grave mistake for Europe to have listened to him.   

As of 2024 the world’s governments were in debt to the tune of almost 310 trillion dollars, and many of these nations are incapable of repaying that debt, and the debt holders are incapable of collecting it, and I include China.

There are six things a nation needs to be self-sufficient. The ability to feed itself, fuel itself, arm itself, defend itself, create its own internal market, and pay off their national debt. There’s only one nation on Earth that can do all six, and that’s the United States. The international debt will destroy the world’s economy, except for America, but make no mistake, there will be economic pain in America also. 

While international trade is an important economic factor, it’s not life saving for the United States but there will be no golden age, just national survival.  While much of the rest of the world breaks up into semi to totally autonomous states, which is Europe’s foundational social paradigm, as well as China’s, and the Middle East and Africa will break up into tribal states, South America will mostly remain as it is because the geography is so difficult, but they will all be broke. 

Can there ever be a new golden age?  Yes, after the new historical cycle begins, but this end cycle has to finish playing out first, and let's not get too excited about this "deal" with Iran.  Deals with the Muslim world become meaningless as soon as things change and they can justify reneging on anything they've agreed to in the past, it's called "taqiyya", a doctrine of deception.  The concept is to deceive adversaries in order to protect themselves, and then later renege on the agreements when it becomes convenient.  The Barbary Pirate Wars with early America is just one example. 

That's history, and that history is incontestable.

Are We Entering a Golden Age?

By Rich Kozlovich

 

I subscribed to Joe Lonsdale's substack blog because I was told what a genius he is, and it's probably true, but mostly he bored me. However, I remained a subscriber because you never know when someone smart will say something really smart. This was the second piece I found worthy, the first was the interview with former Senator Phil Gramm, and I liked it so much I linked to an article of my own.

There's one thing I really found interesting, and that was his view we are on the verge of a "Golden Age", providing we can escape the swamp.  Well, it appears that's going to happen, and much faster than anyone ever hoped for or expected.  Crushing the deep state and the leftist fever swamps will make a huge difference admittedly, but I seriously doubt that will lead to a “golden age”.

I've always believed in historical cycles, and read three books on the subject, and if there ever was a historical endeavor that was in serious need of an organized academic discipline, that's it, because the writers all have their own terminology and odd ways of creating coherence through connectives.  However, if you can plow your way through you find they've all come to the same conclusion. We’re in an end cycle, and all end cycles involve massive economic downturns, and violence.

The world’s governments are in debt to the tune of almost 310 trillion dollars, and many of these nations are in capable of repaying that debt.   The debt holders are incapable of collecting it, and that includes China.  China won't be able to collect on defaulted loans, their Road and Belt is a failure, and they're broke.  

There are six things a nation needs to be self-sufficient. The ability to feed itself, fuel itself, arm itself, defend itself, create its own internal market, and pay off their national debt. There’s only one nation on Earth that can do all six, and that’s the United States. The international debt will destroy the world’s economy, except for America.  Canada, Mexico, and the Northern tier South American states will become economic supplicants just to stay alive.  They need us, we don't need them, and that's true for the entire international economic story.  This isn't 1930 and the Smoot Hawley tariff story is meaningless to America's economy.  We don't need them, they need us.

While international trade is an important economic factor, it’s not life saving for the United States. But there will be no golden age, just national survival!  While the rest of the world breaks up into semi to totally autonomous states, which is Europe’s foundational social paradigm, that's also true as well for China.  

The foundational social paradigm for both the Middle East and Africa are tribal based societies, and if the world's economy collapses, so too will they break up into tribal states, violent tribal states, preceded by massively violent civil wars, such as has been going on in Libya.  The idea of Islamic and/or Arab unity is a myth.   South America will mostly remain as it is because the geography is so difficult, which is why there have been few wars between South American nations, but they will all be broke. 

The world is not going to be entering a new golden age.  Get over it.
