Who rules the USA.

Dan Carlin's great, love his Hardcore History series, the Gengis Khan one being my favourite so far. Currently he's doing a HH series called King of Kings about the Persian Empire, of which episode one is top notch Carlin.

As to the title of this thread though, I think Chomsky's probably more useful...

Not that the world and the US are the same thing obvs.
 
In all truth I have not had time to listen to all of it.

Broad strokes, I think the U.S is most likely doomed to fail, maybe in our lifetimes 20 years give or take.

Too many divisions, opposing groups of people, idologies, beliefs.

A growing number of easily fooled/led people, who are armed and can get behind the loudest voice, usually not a voice of peace, reason and compassion.

(Just look at what happening with the UK, it is reasonable to attack 100,000 people if need be, people just trying on with their lives.)

America will be destroyed from within, all the while the people will be told of an outside threat. Think something along the lines of further banking melt downs, 'police state' enforcement but on much higher level, country wide curfues, tanks/army in every town, political arrests, purges of one or two groups of the local population, social media being monitored, your smart phone becomes your only form of ID.

Crisis after crisis and lastly a point will be reached when you have nowhere to run, only stand and fight for freedom or become a number on a list or worsr case dead because you belong to certain group who are tagged as polical enemies/undesirables.

I agree the US is annoying as fuck, I don't think it will collapse soon though, would frankly be satisfied if dollar hegemony and NATO went away, they'd probably stop being quite such a pain in the arse re the global south at that point. Which would probably surfice.

the US was after all famed or its unity, harmony, peace and compassion in the times of slavery and Jim Crow
 
The biggest of the lot, apparently, are the bond dealers...

Then, everybody else...

Ahem...
