The US in Peril? I think the US, yes, is confronted by 3 plagues: indebtedness (public + private), energy (oil) and the sharing of a worldview (but the return to old religious belief systems will just not help, on the contrary, it blinds the country to the factors that will determine its future in a globalized world. Dumb indeed!). via 3QuarksDaily, Abbas Raza, in The New York Review of Books by Jeff Madrick """ Dependency on oil is one of three major tendencies that will seriously undermine America's future, he writes, the other two being the influence of radical religion and the growing reliance on debt to support the economy. For Phillips, these constitute "the three major perils to the United States of the twenty-first century," and he offers little hope that the US will avoid the consequences. """ URL: The US in Peril?
