    That’s such a narrow take. It won’t just be ‘bad temporarily for US citizens’ if the only country that’s a counter to China ceases to be a pre-eminent world player.

      You know the world has other places than China and the US right. And that the us can still be a very powerful country without being the current hegemon. Certainly a welath tax wouldn’t achieve such impressive collapse in less than a few decades. The only real problem with a complete downfall of us hegemony might actually be the Taiwan situation.

      But literally all of africa and south America would be in a much better situation if the US wouldn’t continue to have the power to protect some of its more historic foreign assets large parts of SEA and the middle east would also have much to celebrate.

      You seem strangely scared of china while having little empathy towards anyone that might be suffering under US aligned rule. My take isn’t narrow but your view of the world might be. If you are at least from the US I might understand somewhat, if not then yikes.
