As large political entities are dissolved, it might be time to rethink town planning, possibly back to earlier roots:

"Harsh capital punishments were set in place to deter anyone from raiding the farms and hamlets and the village gallows were often the first thing one saw when approaching a medieval settlement."

And I imagine bigger players are moving the pawns about, precisely to get an escalation to put in place a plan thought out probably decades in advance, gamed at least as good as event 201 was for the bogus pandemic.

and if it doesn't catch fire? the pressure will be kicked up, looking for another stage to get the same play under way.

interest is also a tool for risk - those who are too risky for a 10% interest rate are likely to get denied credit if this gets carried out.

that may have an interesting effect...

maybe increase financial black markets/loan shark businesses?

so possibly we start seeing 40%, 50%, 60% interest off-the-books loans? Or more of them, if that is already a thing.

Thought: Given the traditional method of obtaining world sovereignty by carrying a big weapon (nukes, arsenal and cadre sufficient to cause damage to opponent's forces), maybe the replacement version can resemble a miniature digital sword of Damocles? Each sovereign has their world-wide digital representation that others can choose to do business with, it handles the transaction remunerations and logistics of physical items transferred to their new homes, etc.

I think the US Republican administration is working towards the same end goal as the previous Democrat administrations: Eliminate suffrage, in exchange for a technocratic "utopia," which as is always the case for all human utopian endeavors, will likely as not kill a lot of the population while being proven faulty.

Trump has surrounded himself with technocrats, and whomever was running Biden got rid of voting/nominations when they installed Kamala as their candidate.

Thiel may be faster at it.
