Great article! I share your optimism for America, as do a couple of geopolitical strategists and authors I follow closely, Peter Zeihan (The End of the World is Just the Beginning) and George Friedman (The Storm Before the Calm). I also share your expectation for a highly volatile decade, as does demographer Neil Howe (The Fourth Turning is Here: What the Seasons of History Tell Us about How and When This Crisis Will End) and social, complexity, and cliodynamics scientist Peter Turchin (End Times: Elites, Counter-Elites, and The Path of Political Disintegration). I look forward to following The Oregon Group and referencing your work in my Substack.

Thanks for the feedback @TheXprojectguy 🙌 We will check out Peter Turchin - sounds interesting. And, yup, it's gonna be a volatile decade and politically almost anything/everything is up for grabs — but whatever comes out the other side will very likely have the same fundamentals at play, and as we know, winner takes all (which is, ironically, we think, one of the reasons for the political volatility!)
