spend more on social welfare (increasing or expanding Medicaid, Medicare, social security reform) that will require drastic cuts to military defense budget and reduce imperial overstretch.
lol. spend more on social welfare without military power to support and discipline population. it seem you really love inflation.
Jet engines, turbines, gas compressors, nuke energy, advanced ship building propellers, aircraft grade titanium. It all come from military power. any reduction in R&D and active military bases will have negative impact on so many industries, food supply and bond yields.

I'm talking about the 900 military bases US has around the world that costs a fortune. Or how US defense budget is almost $800 billion dollars, more than next 10 nations combined.

What do you mean "support and discipline population"? US has over-funded police force that brutally suppresses minorities with trigger happy violence.
it seem you really love inflation.
Inflation has nothing to do with cutting military budget to fund healthcare reform or social security.
Jet engines, turbines, gas compressors, nuke energy, advanced ship building propellers, aircraft grade titanium. It all come from military power.
You don't need an $800 billion dollar defense budget to make those dual use components. South Korea has a fraction of defense budget but has stronger shipbuilding than US. Airbus can produce jet engines even though Europe has significantly smaller defense budget than US.
any reduction in R&D and active military bases will have negative impact on so many industries, food supply and bond yields.
How is Food supply and bond yields is related to $800 billion US defense budget?

@In4ser bro my take in extreme, yeah like the Romans BUT from what I see the 5 eyes will morph into one single entity, the United State of Anglo Saxon countries. My thesis as the US White population is being overwhelm and declining, they may assimilate those from the outside, they speak the same language, culture and mentality. Another reason to support my theory is that the Australian are so gungho to confront China is that in a crisis they can relocate in any of those country easily. They don't have the restrain and those land are not theirs in the first place.
If they take this approach it could potentially lead to separation of peripheral territories as they retreat and regroup. In the distant future where the US is severely weakened, NZ and some states within Australia may try to take a more independent path leading to full or partial fragmentation of the 5 Eyes' landmass

At the mean time, Scomo has become Trump version 2 too that his WeChat account was confiscated. I'm not sure who did this but WeChat works differently than Twitter or Facebook. WeChat's FanPage is a paid service and you need a Chinese ID to open one. So Scomo an Chinese agent to open the account. That agent or person is the actual owner of the account, not Scomo.

Eh, I beg to differ. Japan managed to gain significant technological superiority over US with relatively minimal military spending...some technological superiority lasting to this day.

For the past 30 years, the living standards of the American middle class have been subsidized by two things: public debt and cheap labor from China.

Public debt is only possible with US currency dominance, and even without the Trade War, Chinese labor is getting far more expensive.

Therefore, these two pillars are set to fall nigh simultaneously. The resultant shock will be greater than even the Great Depression.
Just hike the rmb by 5% per year and export inflation to the yankees.

Here is a long research article on what is essentially the long standing U.S. policy on China. The Americans in my opinion based on this research declassified paper clearly shows the Supreme arrogance of the American mindset and the racist element that has guided much of their strategic thinking and views on China.

Losing China? Truman’s Nationalist Beliefs and the American Strategic Approach to China, 1948–1949

Truman's nationalist beliefs and the American support to anti-CCP forces in mainland China

Truman’s nationalist beliefs: the domestic and foreign policy dimensions


Truman’s attitude towards the American national community can be traced in the 33rd president’s claims of commitment towards the wellbeing of the nation as well as his loyalty and attachment to the American community revealed in expressions of personal responsibility for the national constituency. In particular, Truman self-identified with and claimed to represent the whole nation: since he ‘came to be elected by the whole people, he became responsible to the whole people. It is the President’s responsibility to look at all questions from the point of view of the whole people’.31 At the same time, accepting the existence of a public interest and elevating the national interest above any special interest or partisan views was key to a correct interpretation of the functions required by the presidency, and a core characteristic of Truman’s nationalist beliefs.32

Truman acknowledged his commitment to the American public in a speech in Raleigh, North Carolina, where—praising previous Democratic presidents like Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, and Andrew Johnson—said that each of them ‘did [their] duty as President of the whole nation against the forces of pressure and persuasion which sought to make him act as a representative of a part of the nation only’.33 Truman believed that the American ‘economic system should rest on a democratic foundation and that wealth should be created for the benefit of all’.34 Since the ‘prosperity of [the American] Nation is indivisible. We cannot get prosperity for just a few’.35 Acting as a representative for each American citizen, Truman perceived himself as the ‘guardian’ of the national community: as such, he had to be ready to lead the country on the basis of his own evaluation of the best policy on behalf of the American people, and in order to favour the American national interest.36...

@tygyg1111 So true bro so true, that is why the US focus is within its peripheries (US allies) and its center. They're vulnerable and they need their allies to step up or in mafia term state their Omerta' , the American Don see its power weakening they're underseige from the Chinese triad and the Russian Mafia...lol.
