On the Brink of a Terrible Civil War

 Another “expert” warning that America is on the edge of a Civil War. How long will Conservatives live with Dem party rulers telling us they want our guns, men are women & women are men, Israel is bad but Muslims are good, words like father and mother need to be stricken from our society and that THEY will use force to shut down any business they choose?  How long will the godless Left let freedom of speech and freedom of Christian values and morals to be taught by Conservatives until their rage breaks out against us?

Back in February, I said I wanted a president who could “bring together our country to face our challenges in a more united and less divisive way.”

I wanted someone who would unite people – i.e. who does not view themselves as the leader of the winning side imposing policies the other side would find intolerable.

I believe we are on the brink of a terrible civil war (as I described in The Changing World Order series), where we are at an inflection point between entering a type of hell of fighting or pulling back to work together for peace and prosperity that addresses the big wealth, values, and opportunity gaps we’re now seeing. For that reason I was thrilled to hear what President Biden said at his inauguration. It is consistent with the direction history has shown the country needs to move in.

Now the question is whether the president and both parties will bring that about. Good words and spirit aren’t enough. People will have to agree on both how to grow the pie and how to divide it well. That will require revolutionary change.

Doing it peacefully requires both bipartisanship and skill. It won’t be easy. Our country is still in a terrible financial state and terribly divided. 

While Dalio correctly points out the extremely precarious spot where splintered US society stands right now, it is again disappointing that instead of admitting the true poison eating away at the heart of US society, Dalio once again refers to the symptom - the presidency - and not the underlying diseases that brought it on. We are confident that it has to do with the fact that the well-being of Dalio's own fortune is heavily reliant on not kicking the hornets' nest of catastrophic monetary policy, but merely diverting attention to whatever is the media taking point bulletin du jour, in this case the ongoing Trump vs Biden narrative clash.

We can only hope that one day Dalio will have the guts to tell the truth about why we are indeed "on the brink of a terrible civil war" and expose the real criminals behind the deadly divisions tearing apart US society.
