** 16-Mar-2020 World View: Global debt
There's no way that the global debt crisis will be resolved
without a world war.
As World War II was ending, the World Bank and International Monetary
Fund were set up to settle up accounts from before the war, and to
guarantee that a new global debt crisis would never occur again, just
as they set up the United Nations to guarantee that there would never
be another world war. With the rise of Generation-X and contempt for
the Silent Generation that set up those institutions, those
institutions are all failing now.
So in the last 20 years, global debt has gotten out of control, and
has overwhelmed the World Bank and IMF, and Russia has sabotaged and
destroyed the United Nations.
