We are in for 15 years of scarcity. I don't think everything will collapse, but we will have stock outs on a lot of things. We'll have to plan ahead.

Did anyone in the US military game this out first?

In short.

Before the Iraq resistance gained steam, the Cheney admin was ready to run the table, so to speak, on Iran.

Pentagon ran a major war game, all scenarios ended with major US losses in trying to keep the region intact.

Plans to take on Iran directly were dropped. And all this was before drone technology.

The fact that Iran holds a critical region for the world hostage has been known for decades. It is a doomsday weapon for Iran, only useable if facing an existential threat.

Unlike Cheney, Trump simply ignored the warnings. Word is Vance is on the outs because he was against the attack, for reasons above.

But we didn't know what it would be. Here we are.

they are forgetting or not aware that Trump doesn't care about the world economy as long as he has enough money for himself or can continue to steal from the US.

A world market decline would hurt some of Trump's investments, but doesn't he already have millions stashed away somewhere? If the ordinary citizen is hurting financially, well, he's already told us he doesn't think about that.

Good job you orange dip shit.

And it will be your fault.

Touches goes to shit.

For the first time in my life, I just paid $100 for 25 gallons of gasoline. And that isn't a drop in the bucket for the high costs of everything else. This war made no sense.

and has a "yuge" backlog, also very expense for the ones lucky enough to get a winning lotto ticket, yes, they are drawing tickets for use. Starting July 3rd they are cutting back even more do to the super el nino, consumers are screwed!!!

Asshole in the WH already did that!

Remember how Iran held the hostages until Carter was out of office? They are going to do the same thing to Krasnov. We must get rid of him if we want to break their hold on the economy. I wish they would just come out and say it so it will be clear to everyone what must be done. The stooge in the Whote House must leave.

Now now... don't tease me with a good time.

like a cheap fiddle. Ditto for Netanyahoooo. The U.S. cannot be relied upon by any of our former allies at this time. The people of the world have not been in this kind of peril since the Cold War.
