The Crazy World We're Living In

Let's talk about the crazy world that we are living in right now. The good old world that all human beings have been living in but mankind has shaped it into a very volatile environment.

From the macro level to the micro level - The climate, govenments, societies, economies, industries, employment, pension, education, welfare, foreign relations...

France - General strikes to protest the raising of retirement age
UK - Cutting military budget to lower a deficit
Germany - Failed integration of the different cultures
USA - A weak currency, high unemployment, record deficits, fighting 2 wars, healthcare...
China - An artificially low currency, inflation, foreign relationship intimidation
Japan - decade long stagflation
Africa - Anarchy
The list goes on and on and on

Religion, ideology, individualism, protectionism, socialism, capitalism are the toughest ingredients to get the mixture right and they are the main forces shaping the world more than even right now. Get the mixture right, mankind will progress and prosper together, get it wrong and the world gets crazier each day.

Welcome to the world we're living in today!
