The simple answer is, war will happen when we all get desperate.

Most people think innovation and trade will stop wars but it never has and even during the great war of the 1920s Germany and Britain were trading essentials basically making that whole hypothesis right into the dumpster.

But if you have much smaller wars of swear off the nukes they'll still happen and internal conflicts always have a chance at happening.

Something weird happened as i was watching this video. I am used to becoming upset, scared and paniced when watching predictions of the future, fearing of what might happen to me and my family. But for the first time i did not. Perhaps it was the lack of intense music or the calm and composed presentation, or maybe even the ocasional optimism that you sprinkled in, but i did not feel panic. What i feel is acceptance. Not in the sense of crippling pessimism, but in the sense of a sailor heading torwards a storm, ready to face its wrath. If what is said is truely to come, well then, we might as well get it over with. At least we will not be living in boring times, and who knows, there might be land on the other side.

People take everything they have for granted and only tend to focus on what they don't have. Be grateful for everything you have, be grateful for being alive in these peaceful times with a roof over your head to keep you warm and dry, enough food to fill your belly, enough water to stay hydrated, warm water to relax and being able to have a job to pay for these things. No one knows how long we'll be able to live like this or how long this peace will last, so better enjoy it as long as it lasts because for all we know it might stop tomorrow. Carpe diem.

In the 80s you can ask a restaurant for a job and start working in the next minute but now we have a huge form to fill out, having to put all our legal info and wait a few days for them to approve it. Also, anyone below 16 will struggle to find a decent job and has limited hours on how long they can work. It would be nice if you didn't have all these rules preventing you from earning money. I remember being extremely frustrated at this when I got my first job when I was 16 and struggling to find jobs at 14.

What surprised me here is the idea that "women don't know how they want to relate to the workforce", when I thought we were moving into a different cultural place, where both parents are considered responsible for the raising of the children. In that sense, I think of it as not a "women's issue" but a parenting issue. My point about my money is simply: in the baby boomers' day, one income would support a family - that meant there was no choice between the woman working and never seeing their child or staying home and facing economic fragility. In today's economy, our dollar does so little and wage growth has been so slow over the last half century, that one income often will not realistically support a family. So growing income inequity and wage stagnation has created a parenting issue. My take on it anyways!

This is a false statement... how can the world have the "same degree of productivity" and half the population?? Even if you take out "nonproductive" people like the homeless or wipe out the population of countries in proportion to their level of productivity, it's still not a 'zero sum' game... cut population in half, productivity WILL fall by a huge amount. Plus, most production wouldn't be necessary and wouldn't exist without the market for it to make it profitable to produce in the first place... without consumers (population) to buy what is produced, and holding the same level of production, the price of what is produced would collapse, therefore making it unprofitable to produce. For instance, fracking for oil and gas is a technology that was developed way back in the 1940's, but it was never economically viable (profitable) to do when there were easier and cheaper oil and gas formations to produce at the time, and with the cheap prices of oil and natural gas in those markets at that point in time. It was only the run-up in gas and oil prices in relatively recent times, and reduced supply as older oil and gas fields have been depleted and no longer producing, that have made fracking "tight formations" of trapped oil and gas profitable enough to cover the added expenses of doing it to produce that oil and gas... and without PROFIT *nothing* get done! We've been able to produce more than enough food to feed every human on Earth for many decades now-- there is NO food shortage-- the problem is, there's NO PROFIT in producing food for people who have NO MONEY TO BUY IT, or who cannot afford it at the price of production and transport, plus a suitable profit to motivate and sustain the production risks... THAT is the issue that 99.6% of people simply cannot understand... OL J R :)

Love your content. On this remember South Africa is focusing on auto autonomy

13:50 - the movie "Soylent Green" is loosely based on the book "Make Room! Make Room!", in which famine and industrial collapse have hit the United States (and the rest of the world) circa 1990. In the book, soylent green is a protein patty made of soy beans and lentils. I was reading it around 1993 and laughing at how wrong it got everything, and I never finished it because the story was so boring.

1 year since this video came out. I agree with so much of this. However, one thing that seems wrong is the idea that the EU will collapse by the end of the 21st century. The outbreak of the Russo-Ukraine War in 2022 has started this wave of 'Common European Identity' across the EU, and the idea of a United Europe is beginning to be taken seriously by some groups. It is possible that the EU could unite and become a third global superpower to rival China and the US, or internal divisions may return after the Ukraine War and Europe could return to a "Concert" of Proxy Wars just as it was in the 19th Century.

On the topic of “lives saved by things many take for-granted” is that refrigeration has saved more lives than surgery. Between less food born disease from spoiled food and the fact refrigeration has ensured more food is available to consume refrigeration has greatly benefited humanity. I didn’t initially consider this but “air conditioning” is essentially large scale refrigeration and it has saved and improved lives as well.

Only thing I disagree with was the comment about Biden not changing trumps immigration policy in fact. I would agree on paper however 2 million people have crossed the border in the last year.. that is unprecedented

I watch 100s of hours of political, economic, historical and philosophical content on KZread. But you're the only one who manages to blow my mind with new concepts regularly. Honestly, I think you're one of the most intelligent people I've ever listened to. I might have to watch more of your content over again just to revise on the excellent material you create.

Just want to comment that beef production in the industrial world is actually at one of its most efficient forms yet. Cows are able to consume plant by-products that humans cannot. Additionally the vast majority of the water they consume actually comes from rain (as does the CO2) meaning that they are not contributing any new pollution/waste because they are already part of the ecological cycle. Introducing fossil fuels on the other hand into the atmosphere, is a different matter.
