It is interesting except for the fact that he completely leaves out the fact that by his measurement standards, we should have already collapsed.
The early/mid-1980's should have seen our collapse. It was after Vietnam, oil production peaked temporarily (much like the USSR), etc. He completely ignores empires that don't collapse, but merely fade away (such as Great Britain). -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
