Everyone speaks as if the first world is going to collapse. What is the actual evidence for it.

The edifice on which the first world is built is precarious. One major disruption and the whole thing falls apart.

it means hyperinflation will happen after the bubble bursts. or maybe it won't, because we've got nukes and basically hand out money to everyone in the world and they want it to keep its value too.

Society never really collapses, but culture dissipates. Obviously, if you follow history by leaders and governments, things fall apart all the time. If you look at history from the eyes of the common person, some times are worse than others, but mostly things just shift around.

That's not that unusual
But I agree, if most people knew the extent of the possibly looming monetary contraction, well it would probably cause said contraction and we'll be sent back 100 years economically

>socialist revolution
>inevitable
not reaaaaally, maybe socialism but not a "socialist revolution". Socialism might be voted in democratically but by then I doubt it'd be conducive to societal collapse. We've seen crappy socialist countries form in 3rd world nations and those haven't led to "societal collapse", so socialism wouldn't lead to any sort of collapse in modern first-world states, especially as we progress towards an increasingly automated economy in coming decades.

It means you better own arable land and know how to effectively farm it if you like eating food.
