When reading Tom Holland's book 'Rubicon' a few years ago, I was surprised to read his parallel between the Roman Empire and the USA, and how they both became 'fragmented' by becoming too powerful.
China has the real weight of numbers unfortunately. Maybe the 'westernised' world has a need to get back to basics again, and become self-sufficient by supporting our own manufacturers, farming industry etc., and allow some of the inventions which have been suppressed to come to light.
Unfortunately, our dependance on oil has held us back in many fields. Wouldn't Teslar's Free Energy have made a difference, but unfortunately 'big business' interests have prevailed and we appear to have lost interest.
Cheers
