Niall Ferguson's simple view: Protectionism > Trade wars > Disruptive regional conflicts > Perhaps a world war. The Big Reset.
Historically the cycle persists.
I don't care about what the dunderheads say on Fox. I'm guessing what might be said in smoky rooms off the Potomac. Yeah, I know it sounds nuts. I don't even believe it. But as far as Bilderburger/Trilateral Commission paranoias go, it's a plausible one to consider a student of history like Cheney saying, "We're fucked economically. Only one way out. Let's have a war!"
