Globalized Wealth and the Conclude of the Sexual Revolution

Wealth made possible all the things we associate with the “Sexual Revolution”: powerful contraception, abortion on insist , radical feminism, and the victory of the LGBTQI movement. However, if geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan is correct, much of that wealth will disappear over the next 20 – 30 years. Many people don’t immediately realize the connection between wealth and sexual liberalization. But that’s because we don’t inhabit in a world where two out of three people grow food. Is that world coming back? In many countries and regions, the answer is most likely “yes.”

The Close of Pax Americana

In his new book, The Close of the World is Just the Beginning: Mapping the Collapse of Globalization (New York: Harper Business Press, $16.95 [Kindle]), Zeihan argues that today’s wealth grew out of the Bretton Woods Agreement and the U.S.’s efforts to contain the Soviet Union and the Communist Bloc. The commitment was to make the world sound, not so much for democracy as for the industrialization and capitalism that (we rationalized) would aid democratic institutions.

RESTORE DEBATE TO THE PUBLIC SQUARE. MAKE A DONATION

America owes $6 trillion to China, our sprawling military complex often appears helpless against disparate threats abroad, and the War on Terror has stripped us of the moral high ground. Washington is paralyzed by bitter partisanship, our children are falling behind their international peers, and our middle class is no longer the world’s most affluent. But we’ve been warned about America’s decline before. Think of Sputnik? Yes, times are tough, but America is recovering from the Fantastic Recession faster than almost any other advanced country, an energy boom could add billions to the GDP, we’re still a commander in technological innovation, and our military strength and geopolitical advantages remain matchless. Are our finest days behind us, or should the world still wager on America?

Hey, everybody. Peter Zeihan here. Coming to you from Colorado. And today we’re gonna talk about Donald Trump and Russia and Ukraine, war and tariffs and sanctions and blah, blah, blah. So in the last couple of days, Donald Trump has gone out publicly and said repeatedly that he’s really pissed off at Vladimir Putin because Vladimir Putin has been saying all the kind things, and then it’s all bullshit. 

And he just continues the war. Now, anyone who has been following the Ukraine war at all, or really Russian relations for the last 35 years, knows that this is not a new thing. The Russians stretch a lot. And on the Ukraine war specifically, they feel that this is a strategic issue for them and they will say anything to continue the conflict. 

They will continue not just until they have conquered all of Ukraine, but until they’ve gotten a number of countries further to the west. Donald Trump came in saying that he knows Putin very well and he can negotiate a truce in a day, and obviously things have not worked out that way. And so with every stage, Putin is basically lied to Trump more and more and more, and it has made Trump look enjoy a fool in the eyes of

Born in NYC I moved to San Francisco by hitch hiking from Boston in 1973. I was 23 at the moment, graduated from the New York State University system (Plattsburgh campus) with a major in biology and minor in philosophy. I enjoyed my undergraduate years far more than I did my time in highschool. There is a book in all of those years but to divulge all that happened in this little biography would be getting ahead of myself.

In San Francisco the adventure continued. I arrived there a few days before Halloween and one of the first things I saw was a man roller skating down the middle of a road dressed in nothing but saran wrap to which wings were attached at the back and a halo over his leader. I’m not gay, but I had friends in college who were and I am used to moving among mixed crowds. My first thought was that I had arrived in a “party city” and I would find my place here even if I am not, and was not back then, an inveterate “party person”. In limited order I was home in San Francisco. I found a first place (a single room), a job (delivering computer programs on stacks of cards to a mainframe center returning program output to the coders. Little did I
