Mark Blyth, professor of Political Economy at Brown University, talks with AthensLive about the #Brexit vote and the ramifications on the UK and across Europe. He also considers the current situation in Greece and the long run effects of what he calls "Trumpism".
"The Hamptons (where the rich globalists live) is not a defensible position. It's a low-lying beach. Eventually people will come for you"
Change is a comin’ folks. The people will be heard or their will be blood on the streets. The old order was corrupted by Liberalism fantasy. Old tribalism (Nationalism) will once again rise up. It has under Putin in Russia, it has in England, it will in the USA and France. Let us hope it will not slip into fascism-— and if it does, lets hope its more Mussolini or Franco than Hitler or Stalin.
I wish brexit would come true. Multiple elites have already said the UK does not have to submit the rule 50 exit forms. PM Cameron says he won’t leave for almost 4 months from now - and Boris Johnson, most likely to have succeed Cameron is ok with it. In 4 months (hell in 4 weeks) the world and circumstances will be completely different. Cameron will say it was an aberration and people will vote Cameron back in. The Brits have forfeited their freedom the moment they refused to SEIZE it. The elites have won again.
Remember the Ceausescus.
The professor says that the effect of the Euro aka of these globalization efforts is to drive down wages to one low level across the globe. China’s wages will go up and the west’s wages will go down and eventually we will reach a world wide low wage equilibrium.
Before the financial crisis - I was spooked by Bush and congress tightening down on bankruptcy laws to make getting out of debt harder for average people. To me, that was a sign we were about to see a crash in the economy and the elites knew it and were preparing the people so the elites money would be somewhat protected.
Now I am seeing efforts to get our guns. I wonder what the elites are afraid of now that they fear American citizens with god given rights over Islamist terrorists attacking as the main threat?
Remember Jo Cox.
Found this elsewhere. He nailed it!
