Now, we
have a couple of billion of individuals, nations like India and China that
wants to get a leg up controlling the situation and especially their own
prosperity on the planet earth. Just taking those two, there is common belief
among citizens in those nations that they are the oldest, the wisest on earth
thus not respecting western ideals. I wonder, how will we westerner’s deal with
cultures and thinking like that. I don’t see it amongst us, what I see is
planting more cheap labor opportunities on the lands of those nations, which I
believe will lead to the demise of the “great” (read greedy) nations like the
USA (and some other nations). There is no way to stop that, as everything we do
is based on our own greed and if we don’t consume we die. The Swedish treasury
lowered the interest to 0% to boost the economy (consuming) but at the same losing
control over it.
The Chinese
is silently everywhere already, the Indians (Hindus) everywhere since way back
because of the British colonies and the relocation of those people from the 19th
century and on to modern days. What worries me the most is the Chinese engaging
in anything that would make money, anywhere, that is drug trade and un-ethical
mining of gold or whatever minerals asked for by the world market. The Chinese
are into so much more than what people on the street in any western nation
would imagine (because of incomplete or incompetent press coverage), like the
Mexican handicraft (artesania) being a bargain on the streets of Mexico City now
being replaced by much cheaper ones from China, yet, the Chinese are invisible,
you don’t see them on the streets. When the Chinese are able to beat anything
we can do, or even better beat the ones that did it for us, what will this sum
to at the end? Is our salvation to prop up India as we did with China to
counter the Chinese wonder?
This whole
thing is just history as for years it has gone out of the hands of the first
nation on earth, the world “peace-making” force, the world stabilizer, the
world police, the USA. It has nothing to do with Obama, but earlier errors
committed by a resource and power-hungry nation’s administration elected by the
people (no - elected by corporations paying for the presidential campaigns),
the USA that has been too long on good supply of dollars, Crystal Meth,
Marihuana and Cocaine (sorry, I forgot Heroine), and a changing gallery of
designer drugs allegedly developed in Europe, then produced and distributed by
the Chines (read – not North Korea)
Hollywood
made some entertaining movies though…. but life is not easy at all and in
particular for anyone of us not aspiring for the driver’s seat.
There is no
way pushing them back and a fruitful strategy seems to be missing, but
irrespective of strategy, the US thinkers know that the point of no return is
already passed. All the errors committed earlier basically trying to appear
sitting with the intelligence, attempting to inflict fear opposing US policies,
to control everything on the planet took the wrong direction some many times
coming to the intersections of the future – because of greed, the only nation
on planet earth not changing after the demise of the USSR. Not listening to
anybody, abstaining from voting on Climate Change issues, lifting vetoes in the
UN when the matters did not lead in the direction of US desires. How can
anybody trust a nation like that – the truth is, nobody, nobody would. Someone
said, to win you need to bet on all horses in the race, meaning to bet even on
the devil’s horse to get what you want, the agencies views of the world, irrespective
of what the people of your nation wants, without listening, without asking
them.
You did
take the step to re-open US oil fields in fallow, stymieing developments of
green resources in Europe and on your own soils throwing us back to oil dependency,
hampering promising developments especially in Europe, with an exceptionally
bad timing. The reason, to lower cost of US production, to make your nationals
happy as the cost of mobility is crucial on your lands. We’ll see how long this
strategy lasts. But, you'll notice that few of us will be able to pay for your produce and that seem to be the catch.
The US is
composed of 50 states each one different from one another, it could be having
or not having capital punishment, it could be regarding green thinking with
higher taxation on energy consummation or no taxes holding the freedom to roam
the lands high. Sometimes I hear about this on social Medias but summing it all
up, your individuality is not perceived of outside your borders, your voice is
not heard of outside of the US, over here at any ROW nation the only thing we
hear or see is the voice of your agencies communicated through the voice of
your federation – the US government.
This
article is not an anti US publication at all, I did live in the states married to an American woman, two of my children are born there, I did admire the US and I still
do as my admiration boils down to the level of creativity found in your
society, the unprecedented faith, morals, values you once had but sorry to say
all that seem to be in decay and probably because of the ludicrous thought that
you were meant by the almighty, to control it all, to own it all, to deserve it
all. History proves that no people, no nation on earth will persist having such
a belief. The real power is to be found within the individual, not a nation,
nor a state. Some believe that that power is the power of God.
