As capitalism evolves into state-sponsored capitalism, is the natural outcome of this the elimination of the republic? Its pretty obvious that a radical change is immanent…economic collapse and a world war seem likely.
Thoughts?
Well…
There are a lot of Europeans pissing off the Germans.
HISTORICALLY, that has never been a good idea…

We’ve been radically changing for quote a while now.
We’ve been in a world war for about 10 years now.
At the present 59 countries are in a warlike state, involving 338 Militias-guerrillas and separatist groups.

However as only a few of these conflicts have any impact on global finances it’s too early to cry wolf.

War is a dreadful, dreadful thing.
Somehow with Anglosaxons that does not register.
What makes German people so unpleasant in war is that they take it for granted and start from there.
I dont think it will be necessary anytime soon though.
“Forty five years after the War on Poverty began, there are 49 million Americans living in poverty. Thatâ??s a solid good return on the $16 trillion spent so far. Itâ??s on par with the 16 year zero percent real return in the stock market. We have produced a vast underclass of ignorant, uneducated, illiterate, dependent people who have become a huge voting block for the Democratic Party. Politicians, on the left, promise more entitlements to these people in order to get elected. Politicians on the right will not cut the entitlements for fear of being branded as uncaring. The Republicans agree to keep the welfare state growing and the Democrats agree to keep the warfare state growing -bipartisanship in all its glory. And the middle class has been caught in a pincer movement between the free shit entitlement army and the free shit corporate army. The oligarchs have been incredibly effective at using their control of the media, academia and ideological think tanks to keep the middle class ire focused upon the lower classes. While the middle class is fixated on people making $13,400 per year, the ultra-wealthy are bribing politicians to pass laws and create tax loopholes, netting them billions of ill-gotten loot. These specialists at Edward Bernays propaganda techniques were actually able to gain overwhelming support from the middle class for the repeal of estate taxes by rebranding them â??death taxesâ??, even though the estate tax only impacts 15,000 households out of 117 million households in the U.S. The .01% won again.”
Sounds like a setup for a messianic leader who’ll lead us out of the chaos.

Oh no! Please don’t accuse me of being liberal minded.
I’d like to see money out of politics. Our politicians are fundraisers and lawyers before they are public servants, and now that corporations have them in their back pockets due to fundraising requirements, we are no longer the priority when it comes to elections.
My solution is socialized elections. The only legal thing you would be allowed to donate to a politician would be your vote, this would allow everyone to have an equal voice, and take corporations, strange hermit republican nazi’s from Idaho, and ultra liberal lushes from Hollywood out of the financial aspect of politics.
Will never happen, but that is my solution.
Our politicians right now prioritize corporate interest because they are smart enough to understand they need fundraising to campaign in the first place, while voters take a back seat to these, “corporate persons” with their “corporate deep wallets.”
I’m sure the government can find some spare money for some sort of public channels dedicated to federal and state elections, where candidates can battle it out with politics and wit, rather than commercials, talking heads from Fox and MSNBC, and billboards.
Pipe dream, but being idealistic allows for creative and effective problem solving.
Just have to convince you conservatives that socialism can be a good thing, at least when it’s applied correctly! 
haha, fat chance.

There’s far too much loot to be had. You’re dreaming.
We have to have a collapse and then someone lines all of these people up against a wall, all the billionaires and lobbyists and so on.
Religion made people irrational or kept them irrational. Therefore a rational society, such as what the USA was in its founding, is not possible.
Some sort of tyranny, based on drones and total surveillance, is our future.
