America changed the name of its Department of Defense to the War Department. The whole world is preparing for armed conflict. Israel, Turkey, and South Korea specialize in the weapons industry. Europe is re-arming. Russia is embroiled in an active war. India and Pakistan have a border war. All the while, populations are falling, and people are distracting themselves with pointless tourism and sex parties.
Meanwhile, an economic depression is approaching. Most Governments cannot pay the interest on their debt. Their sole way out is bankruptcy
a la Argentina. I feel powerless to change anything, so I work and hoard shekalim. Not that it will help when the trumpets sound.
