[@jackkennedy9475]

If Peter Zeihan is correct, shorter supply chains, localized produce and production then this had other potential ramifications. Some of his statements: inflation, baby boomers retiring, reduction of younger workers to fill jobs across many developed countries to include China and India, and potential lose of globalization. With reduction of workers will reduce pollution, assumption retirees pollute less, shorter supply chains reduction in energy consumption and waste, localized companies will have to find better methods for managing waste/pollution, who wants to live in a garbage dump, famine could equate to a moderate drop in population, war the same. These issues seem to point to less pollution and significantly more smaller localized produce.

@@ruoyuli4091 he talking about inflation on a global scale and how the decisions the CCP has made on the Globl Markets has effected not only the wolrd markets but also the US Markets and yes pumping 3 trillion into the economy has contributed to our inflation but that has only been made worse but a government that has made bad decisions for a country and its economy that 4X bigger than ours. So yes 3 trillion is one thing but China mistakes are magnified when its 4X times bigger than it main rival.

[@gabelazar6376]

I’ll give it to Peter Zeihan- he’s been preaching this same narrative for about a decade now. He’s certainly intelligent, and I agree with majority of his perspectives, but I think some of his messages are spoken in terms that are too absolute and don’t allow for alternative potential scenarios. We’ll just have to see how the future unfolds!

[@napper2212]

I'm very confident that none of Zeihan's predictions will come true. It's just a bunch of hyperbolic projections based on flawed premises, faulty logic, totally unreliable statistics. & Wishful thinking. China will "collapse" in the next 10-15 years? That's utter nonsense. I'm willing to bet real money against him on this.

This episode is very short sighted as is Zeihan. We operated the most efficient and prosperous nation in human history when our population was 175-200 million less in America. Om top billions of jobs will be reduced by software automation, robotics, A.I....etc in a time of de-globalization where the 8 billion shortly will be fighting over resources. The transition to lower population will be hard but we need to reduce the population of the working class by at least 70-80% and all the elite/rich/higher paid government wokrwr families by 99.99%. Strict child control policy should be implemented on the upper strata where only 1 in a million families should be allowed to have children, all the other families should have forced tubal ligation among this wealtheir and even upper level government families. For the other 99.99% of the population, no more than 1% of families should be allowed to have 2 children maximum then tubal ligation should be done.

[@kknudsen4907]

He reads, analyzes and postulates. While a lot of what he says does make intelligent sense there is not a way to ever fully predict the future. Factors could change that affect some of his analysis but he’s definitely a great speaker and postulator. I think there have always been the world is nigh type people. The one thing he doesn’t rely on is the capabilities for human response and innovation. If countries he mentions struggle and start falling as he suggests one would hope people would find ways to adapt and overcome so the doom and gloom this man predicts may not quite unfold as he predicts. Remember he is predicting based on numbers and analysis. That is never a perfect science. I find him very thought provoking but the hopelessness he indicates for humanity seems destructive and I have more faith in humanity than that.

The core of his argument is that global commerce relies entirely on the US navy protection and that US is going to withdrawl its presence patrolling the oceans.

Excellent interview. I’ve gotten hooked on Mr. Zeihans works. As an American millennial, I see it as short term pain (investment in our own manufacturing) for long term gain (secure supply chains and the resurgence of manufacturing jobs in the states). Although I don’t think globalization will be completely dead as Peter makes it seem I still see some investment in Vietnam and like he mentioned Mexico (I have a new Samsung TV made in Mexico) and I’d argue against his prediction on South Korea and I think disadvantaged will probably stick with it as much as they can for survival. I think South Korea will probably follow what he said about Japan in that they will commit to US partnership as they are heavily investing in US manufacturing from Samsung for chips and EV batteries, LG the same, and Hyundai as they have a large market share in the US auto market like Toyota, Honda, and Nissan.

[@Antonio-tl6ex]

What an awesome interview! Agree with most of his conclusions but you have asked exactly the right questions thank you!!

[@RealVisionPresents]

[@fannibal]

While I appreciate the insightful analysis, I know for 100% certainty that every prediction he has is probably correct in the short term, and horribly wrong in the long term. We as humans just do not the intellectual capacity to predict the weather that is global geopolitics in the long term. Whatever the outcome of the future, I hope and pray for peace.

[@AnotherAmerican91]

Yeah it's all based on givens. Europe won't start buying Russian oil again for any reason. All manufacturing will leave China or need to. Things can happen. Its still a worth while exercise to see where we are currently headed if nothing changes.

[@erwinkunze4091]

Change is inevitable, the world never stays the same, demographics are easy to predict, it takes 20 years to produce a 20 year old educated worker and member of society. We either have children or we don’t, mathematics don’t lie. Peter Zeihan was quite accurate when in 2015, when he predicted the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, he then said in 2015, that the annexation of the Crimea peninsula was the beginning and in approximately 5 to 10 years, Russia was going to annex more Ukrainian territory and possibly swallow the entire country, and he was right, it’s happening right now, 8 years later as he predicted.

[@Widesight]

Change is always scary but change is the only place you find opportunity. Some will be frozen with fear (hopefully not literally) but for those people (especially the young) who are able to be see the light at the end of tunnel…we are looking at the most exciting, innovative times for decades. My sense is that people have not enjoyed being dulled by comfort in the last few years, here’s your chance to get snappy.

I had this episode in my playlist for a while. And as I finally had a chance to watch, just about halfway through, I saw the news of Shinzo Abe gunned down (IN JAPAN? FOR REAL?). I believe he was a real culprit in bringing the country out of the never-ending mess Peter is talking about. RIP.

[@WythenshawePhil]

[@vanessali1365]

Culprit? Abe san was a visionary. He had done lots to prepare Japan to ride the coming political and economic waves. He was the one convinced India to join the Indo-Pacific alliance.

[@chaossedated]

He was right about inflation being an issue but everyone was saying that. He’s proven to be wrong about everything else, especially famine and China collapse.

[@kaushikvsmaniyan]

39:00 - 40:46 - reassuring for India, that's if we continue to build our industrial capacity & shorten supply chains especially avoiding China & East Asia - we will have to source our energy needs from the Persian Gulf rather than Russia though. 56:55 - 57:40 - Very interesting on Argentina, positively so! 1:01:54 - 1:02:44 - Labour seemingly will have more leverage over capital in the surviving/thriving regions, 1:05:33 - 1:05:44 - Cautiously optimistic or at least neutral for South Korea. Great conversation! Maggie is by far the best interviewer I've seen in quite some time!

[@inspirediscipline]

This reminds me of a quote by Henry Kissenger "Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can control the world." It would be difficult for nations to collaborate since each team is looking at maximum control

[@anonymousdonor8084]

Yes, the team mentality leads to irrational behavior. Makes insight into future stupidity difficult.

Great interview. As a retiring Baby Boomer I have consistently heard about the diminishing purchasing of the boomer generation. Inflation is here to stay for years.

Atleast the decade

[@paulheydarian1281]

Yeah, but you probably have amassed at least a couple of revenue generating assets. (Ex. Real-Estate)

[@MrDoyley35]

Hang on. Diminishing purchasing is deflationary. U know fewer dollars chasing same amount of goods=lower prices? Or stagflationary which is even worse.

[@manniking233]

At 1:05:32 you state 'never underestimate the Koreans". Hyundai - a south Korean auto manufacturer - now owns an 80% share of Boston Dynamics, the robotics company that makes Atlas (the robot that runs up and down stairs, and does Parkour). Expect to see this technology merged with AGI to solve the demographics worker shortage problem. You still won't have a lot of South Koreans, but you will have all the factory workers you need.
