Cyrus Janssen: Bad US Policy Gave Rise to BRICS and China

[@nomadcapitalist]

Interested in obtaining citizenship or residence in a BRICS country as a hedge against the decline of the West and the US-dominated financial system? Watch this video where we reveal 8 BRICS member states, as well as potential members of the alliance, that offer entrepreneurs and investors alternatives to living, investing and doing business in the West: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eauaeH2cjr2iqas

China’s democracy = gov officials are chosen by the people based on their previous achievements and behaviors. US’s democracy = gov officials are chosen by billionaires that make up 1% of the US’s population. Isn’t China’s democracy a true democracy since the gov officials are chosen by the majority of regular Chinese people instead of by a small group of billionaires like the US’s gov officials are chosen? The US’s democracy is a fake democracy that is runs by billionaires while China’s democracy is real!

I lived a decade in Asia and the last two years here in San Francisco. The United States is in a complete decline culturally and materially. Asia, at least from my experience is a far more superior place culturally and materially in 2024. This trend will continue as far as I can see going forward. i’m happy that the world has finally moved into a multipolar state. All branches of government here appear in my eyes illegitimate.

Economic growth and employment wasn't great in addition to substantial increases in government spending led to a massive increase in the national debt. On the foreign policy side of things the US government was engaging in unnecessary, unjust and destructive wars in addition to trying to sanction Iran and North Korea (two countries of the so-called "Axis of Evil") into submitting to the will of the US government. None of those policies benefitted the US or the majority of Americans.
