is there a reason why we (Australia) have done so well out of coal over the past 10-15 years and America hasn't?

Aussieland is much closer to China so smaller shipping costs.

Of course when China invades in 2027 during the fourth year of the Great Global Recession that won't matter much.

Other way around, the royal family makes money off of England. They receive a portion of the income from "the crown estate" and all of the income from "the duchy of lancaster" and "cornwall". Also they receive grants from Parliament. If there were no royals, that income would go towards the state.

The tourism claim is essentially unverifiable, since there is no way to tell whether the Royal Family was the tipping point to determine whether a tourist decided on England. That being said, tourists can still go see Royal palaces even if there is no royalty, e.gm, the Hermitage and Versailles. In fact, removing the parasites makes it more desirable as a tourist destination since you can show off the whole thing.

The British taxpayer will also be on the hook for the upcoming $460 million dollar renovation to Buckingham Palace.

China also has us by the balls economically

To a certain degree, but China's advantage can be mitigated by moving manufacturing out of China and to Mexico/Vietnam/Thailand etc.

China on the other hand can't get rid of the American advantages unless they go nuclear.

they can switch their industrial strength to other things a lot quicker than we can build new plants/find new suppliers in other countries

like a lot of the poo poo we even make here has chinese manufactured parts

like it sounds great to say "oh we'd just shift things around" but you can't really just build hundreds/thousands of new plants overnight

We already started moving stuff out of China years ago and it's been accelerating. (sidenote: this is a big motivation for their naval strategy. They want to be able to block shipping lanes and threaten any country that could take manufacturing out of China, e.g. Vietnam, Indonesia, Phillipebes, etc.)

It'd be painful as gently caress, but we'd be fine after a decade or two.

China otoh would need to figure out how to feed 100s of millions of people and prevent a civil war.

What if that's the point of all this. Trigger a meltdown in the main engine of the globalist economy then use the resulting depression to justify massive infrastructure investment to win the support of the masses. The economy is too stable right now for fascists to take power, but kickstart a depression and all bets are off.

My theory is that he continues the crazy for two years while abusing his power to negotiate with every country to build :TRUMP: hotels.

At the end of year two he gets the Republicans and Democrats together and offers to step down in exchange for every tax break, holiday, and easement imaginable.

He could make $100 billion easily and join his buddy Putin in the 9 digit club that he's always aspired to.
