Worldwide Economic Warfare?

Worldwide Economic Warfare? If I didn't know better I would think that Earth is a sinking ship and all it's peoples are rats desperately trying to survive the sinking ship. That's how it now looks to me. There are nations waging economic war against each other. There are nations fighting for their share of the oil. There are nations hoarding food for their citizens. There are panicked people from the rich all the way to the poor starting more and more to act in desperate ways. There are a few really rich and greedy people manipulating economies by selling them short for profit. There are many many more poor each day not getting enough food to stay alive much longer worldwide.

In other words it is beginning to look a lot like the late 1920s and early 1930s in a starkly similar and yet starkly different way at the same time. There don't appear to be any rules shared by humans on earth. It appears to be every person for themself.
Just remember Descartes saying: "There is nothing so bad that no good may come of it!"

Out of the Great Depression and World War II came the 1950s and 1960s which were the most prosperous time the United States had ever known before.

Those that can survive the next 20 years might have a great 20 years about 20 years from now!
