9. Should maybe get a "doom" tag. I couldn't read to the end. Terribly depressing.

This #9 issue, the new "Manifest Destiny", in my view, is a sign of the US going weaker. Not that fast, but it's a sign of decline. I wonder if they mention China as the main growing force, but anyway. We will see who lands on the Moon next. I sincerely hope that the US will lose. I hope that these idiots will start to attempt controlling high tech.

But no guarantees. Maybe we are getting into very dark ages.
