Today I read: “A few years ago I would have said that there was no chance that the US will be the world’s biggest economy by the end of the 21st century. Now I am certain the US will remain the largest economy throughout the whole of this century.”
One reason why is offered by what I read yesterday: “Any socialist effort to navigate the very real state shift in the climate will require a massive reconstruction and deployment of productive forces. For example, all the major cities that are on a coastline on this planet will have to be moved inland. That means the electrical grids and sewer systems need to be rebuilt. We will need to reimagine urban life on a massive scale.”
The latter’s impossible-to-implement undermines anything like the certitude in the former’s starting point.
