Also note that some of us also believe its possible the 1T may have just started.
It is harder for an elite to make profit from war than it used to be. It is easier to play financial games. Thus, the elites are not encouraging the selection of warlike leaders. Nukes, proxy wars and insurgent wars make it harder to act like a warrior. No one profits from having a bunch of their factories nuked. Insurgent wars with somebody supplying weapons gives a big advantage to the locals, the people who can disappear into the general population. No major power has started a crisis war in the Information Age.
I see the federal aspect of regeneracy as having just started. The problems are just now being addressed in earnest. I don't see any of them as taking as long as a crisis war used to. I can see a mood coming where we will try to prevent the problems from happening again and turn towards materialism, but the bug is still running wild, the racial legislation has not past, the economy hasn't recovered, the red violence trials are just beginning. The crisis heart is just underway. It is just that the people who don't believe that government should solve problems will try to ignore problems.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
