We’ve been watching the thesis of the Sovereign Individual play out as the world transitions from the centralized industrial age to the decentralized Information Age.

One of the predictions is that the large nations, like the 🇺🇸, would fragment. The trigger could be anything but I’ve always suspected it would be a financial crisis, probably over the federal government plundering the states, an echo of the original Tea Party.

I’ve been increasingly seeing signposts like this 👇- financial disputes between the states and federal government. In addition to issues like the border dispute, you can also see how blue states are going to need bailouts soon for their mismanaged pensions and massive state debts.

Will the red states pay?

Will be interesting to see how this plays out.
