This is just the first in a series of cascading Crises: Fareed Zacharia

I agree with Fareed Zacharia in regard to this. We are in the first of a series of crises. Why?

Krugman on Fareed's GPS on CNN said that:" It's as if you put the world economy in an induced Coma because of some serious injury, recovering from something like this is comparable or worse than the Great Depression worldwide.

So, there is this dance between stopping the virus and not permanently killing the world economy forever.

So, Trump is right where within a month or two really hard decisions need to be made so "The Solution isn't worse than the illness."

The first crisis: The Coronavirus epidemic and pandemic
The 2nd Crisis: feeding, clothing and housing everyone on earth after sheltering in place
The 3rd Crisis: putting people back to work
The 4th Crisis: The 2nd waves of Coronavirus hitting those going back to work
The 5th Crisis: The 1st Wave hitting third world countries that haven't been hit hard yet.
The 6th Crisis: Putting these countries back to work IF they still have a functioning government.
The 7th Crisis: Dealing with places that have no government at all like Somalia in the 1990s. See the movie "Blackhawk Down" for example, because of the coronavirus.

And there are likely crises after this.

But, without a president like Obama or Bush or Clinton you won't see the kind of world leadership during this era with someone like Trump and likely world Chaos worse than World War II or the Great Depression or World war I and the Cold War will result which could depopulate the world down to about 1 to 4 billion during this century or. less.

So, as a result we likely are going to lose at least 1/2 of the present population on earth during the next 10 to 20 years time the way all this is presently going.

So, we are going to experience chaos as bad or worse than the 20th century from beginning to end during this century the way things look right now because we are talking about losing about 4 billion people or more through all of this.

Could it go a better way than this?

OF course!

Let's hope so!

By God's Grace
