End of globalization? Or over simplified and sensationalized?

TL;DW - Zeihan predicts the fall of China in the next ten years as an economic force.

Refuted by Cyrus Janssen, who says this is not likely.

Janssen quotes Joeri Schasfoort and Martin Wolf.

Is the current world economy standard changing as drastically as predicted by Zeihan?

      That’s a good point. Maybe I can get an LLM to summarize and count how many he’s done over a period of time, and his accuracy.

    while I watch the USA enjoyers battle it out with the China enjoyers in the “it makes my feels big” voting, I will just say the featured content was interesting and enjoyable. worth a watch.

      I have to agree. The data might have been pointed, but it was entertaining. You don’t get that popular by being boring, especially if you’re not always right. Since I’m a little fish/big pond kinda guy, I like getting a good overview of world economies and historical trends, or at least one dude’s perspective of it.
