I think that's close to what we're experiencing. We live in an exponential age with lots of volatility. It's partly why I think the government is trying to regulate themselves out of being part of it. Unfortunately, there's no avoiding it.

Out of being a part of what?

The volatility and exponentials

I see. Somehow these people still don’t understand that legislation and regulation mean nothing to natural processes and economic laws.

Which western country implodes first?

Hmmmm.... I think it depends on what kinda implosion we're thinking about.

Social/political, I go with France

Institutional, I take UK or Canada

Economically, I'd think Germany due to the EU

Full blown systemic, has to be the US

Oh I was thinking hyperinflation. Similar to South America. So US you think?

US I think is more at risk, with Canada as my second choice.

I don’t like these odds 😬😬😬

Both of those is terrible for us

The deficits are on the tilt of going exponential. We're close.

When Canada implodes the US will step in to save our oil...

...I mean us.

Yeah if we go into hyperinflation for sure they liberate us 😭

I think there's be a very high chance they'd be some form of coercive involvement, but not invasion.

I think you’re right

I just hope Alberta separates before the big boom happens.

You think they wouldn’t invade Alberta if they separate before the implosion of Canada?

The odds would be incredibly low. The only path for that to happen would be if Alberta stopped exporting oil to the US, which wouldn't be in our interest.

Politically, it would be much easier for the US to invade Venezuela, than to invade Alberta.

Even if rest of Canada is in hyperinflation?

The USA won't invade. They are waiting for us to grow up and get our own Constitution! Then we can either make a deal or not with our own united states of Alberta currency!

I think maybe the EU will be the first major western institution to fail. Really hope so. They seem to be the most delusional and insane and the farthest along in destroying the trust and goodwill of their institution.

The only thing about the EU that holds me back from saying the goodwill of their institutions will break down, is the culture. It seems, from the outside, that Europeans are passive with it. There are protests and push back, but it only seems to be a small minority.

I sure hope so. Not that I wish them ill will. But all the printing in the US doesn’t bode well
