Why you should not count on the rapid collapse of the Western economy

December 16 2022

Updated statistics on inflation in the US and the UK showed a significant decline. They reflect an improvement in performance twice as fast as expected. This means that in the short term, the collapse of the EU and the US is not expected.

Annual inflation from November 2021 to November 2022 in the United States decreased to 7,1% instead of the previous 7,7%. The increase in prices over the past month amounted to only 0,1% and is almost imperceptible to the population. The figure is slightly higher on the other side of the Atlantic. The monthly increase in prices in the United Kingdom was 0,4%, which also indicates stabilization economics.

Among the American and European elites there are enough competent specialists who are able to find solutions in the current geopolitical situation. Therefore, one should not hope for a quick collapse of the European and American economies. The shock caused by the imposition of sanctions and their retroactive effect has passed, and the financial situation in the West is stabilizing.

In the long term, deals between China, Russia, India and Saudi Arabia with settlements in yuan and rupees are likely to create difficulties for Western financial institutions. But it is better for the Russian Federation to rely on its own resources, the development of logistics in the eastern direction and the correct conduct of economic policyrather than waiting for problems from opponents.

  That everyone will freeze, not the smartest people said. It was pointed out that people in the West would survive the winter, albeit with difficulties, but not all industry. We'll see.

There is no reason to count on the collapse of imperialism in the foreseeable future. Everything will depend on the success of building socialism in the PRC. If everything goes as it should, then many state formations of the world will be drawn to the PRC, which will weaken world imperialism, aggravate internal contradictions, deprive them of solidity and internal strength, which will lead to a transition to a higher level of development. The crisis generated by the war with the Russian Federation dealt a strong blow to the economy of the imperialist state formations in Europe and forced the nationalization of many enterprises. At the end of the acute phase of the crisis, they will probably be sold under the hammer, which in one way or another leads to an increase in the concentration of capital and an aggravation of class contradictions in the imperialist state formations themselves, and also does not strengthen them.

How pleasant in our time, even in itself, a sober voice!
I hope that he will refresh the domestic "hat-throwers" who are drunk on a close victory over the West

Well, the fairy tale about the collapse of the West ends, a new one about orientation to the East begins. Since we have a memory like an aquarium fish, we quickly forgot how the Chinese sent us with gas in 2020, having bought a little out of courtesy and refusing to finance gas pipelines, so by next winter they will return to this again.

If taxes on prostitution, drug addiction and child labor are considered measures to overcome the crisis, then yes. This will certainly help a lot In the UK, these are already income items to the budget. Keep it up gentlemen And also for reference. In the UK, service taxes make up 80% of the budget. It is precisely these services that are cut off from the Small Britain. It just stabilizes the budget. Ugums. True, the population will have to be written off that way 50%. But these are trifles

The Russian media are so diligent in watching the picture of the "collapse" of the European economy, which is almost ridiculous. And he is not. There are difficulties due to new circumstances, a new energy supply system is being established, but there is no "collapse". And the sanctions against Russia are in effect, they are not invented by fools.

Do not make calculations for those who have never been able to do the right calculations .....
Even in your own business.
