Ufumu ukadali (kapena watsopano, monga sizinali nthawi zonse) nkhani yovuta mu Ufumu waku US. Anthu ambiri ku United States angakane kuti United States idakhalapo ndi ufumu, chifukwa sanamvepo za iwo, motero siyiyenera kukhalapo. Ndipo iwo omwe amakonda kulankhula zaufumu waku US ambiri mwina amakhala ochirikiza nkhondo zachiwawa zotsutsana ndi mafumu (monga lingaliro lakale monga ufumu) kapena obweretsa uthenga wabwino wa kugwa kwa ufumuwo posachedwa.
Zodandaula zanga zakunenedweratu kwa kugwa kwa ufumu wa US zikuphatikiza (1) ngati zoneneratu zosangalatsa za "mafuta apamwamba" - mphindi yaulemerero yomwe sinanenedwe kuti idzafika mafuta okwanira asanawotchedwe kuthana ndi moyo pa Dziko Lapansi - kumapeto kwa ufumu wa US osatsimikizika kuti abwera posachedwa ndi mpira wamiyendo wamunthu aliyense kudzateteza chilengedwe kapena nyukiliya ya chilichonse; (2) monga kulanda kopita patsogolo kwa Congress kapena kuwonongedwa kwachiwawa kwa Assad kapena kubwezeretsedwanso kwa a Trump, zonenedweratu nthawi zambiri zimawoneka ngati zosafunikira; ndipo (3) kuneneratu kuti zinthu zidzachitika sikungalimbikitse zoyesayesa zazikulu kuti zitheke.
Zomwe tikufunikira kugwira ntchito kuti tithetse ufumu sikuti amangothamangitsa zinthu, komanso kuti tidziwe momwe ufumu umathera, ndikuti tithe, osati ufumu wokha, koma mabungwe onse aufumu. Ulamuliro waku US wazankhondo, kugulitsa zida zankhondo, kuwongolera asitikali akunja, kulanda boma, nkhondo, kuwopseza nkhondo, kupha ma drone, zilango zachuma, mabodza, ngongole zadyera, komanso kuwononga / kuphatikiza malamulo apadziko lonse lapansi ndizosiyana kwambiri ndi maufumu akale. Ufumu waku China, kapena wina, ukadakhala watsopano komanso wosachitikanso. Koma zikadatanthauza kuti anti-demokalase ikukhazikitsa mfundo zoyipa komanso zosafunikira padziko lonse lapansi, ndiye kuti ungakhale ufumu ndipo zitha kusindikiza tsogolo lathu monga momwe ziliri masiku ano.
Chomwe chingakhale chothandiza ndi mbiri yakale yowona bwino ya maufumu omwe akukwera ndi kugwa, yolembedwa ndi wina wodziwa zonsezi ndikupereka magawo awiri azofalitsa zaka mazana ambiri ndikupewa mafotokozedwe osavuta. Ndipo zomwe tili nazo tsopano mu Alfred W. McCoy Kulamulira Globe: World Orders and Catastrophic Change, ulendo wa masamba 300 kudzera mu maufumu akale ndi amakono, kuphatikizapo maufumu a Portugal ndi Spain. McCoy amafotokoza mwatsatanetsatane zomwe maufumuwa adathandizira kupha anthu, ukapolo, komanso - mosiyana - kukambirana za ufulu wachibadwidwe. McCoy amasinkhasinkha za kuchuluka kwa anthu, zachuma, zankhondo, zachikhalidwe, komanso zachuma, ndikuwona mochititsa chidwi zomwe masiku ano tinganene kuti ubale wapagulu. Mwachitsanzo, akuti, mu 1621 a Dutch adadzudzula nkhanza zaku Spain pakupanga mlandu wolanda madera aku Spain.
McCoy akuphatikiza zomwe amatcha "Empires of Commerce and Capital," omwe ndi a Dutch, Briteni, ndi French, motsogozedwa ndi Dutch East India Company ndi ena omwe amapha kampani, komanso nkhani ya malingaliro osiyanasiyana amalamulo apadziko lonse lapansi Malamulo onena za nkhondo ndi mtendere adatuluka munthawi imeneyi. Chimodzi mwazinthu zosangalatsa pa nkhaniyi ndi momwe malonda aku Britain ogwirira akapolo ochokera ku Africa adakhudzira kugulitsa mfuti zikwi mazana ambiri ku Africa, zomwe zidabweretsa ziwawa zowopsa ku Africa, monganso kulowetsa zida kumadera omwewo mpaka lero.
Ufumu waku Britain watchulidwa kwambiri m'bukuli, kuphatikizapo zina mwamawu a Winston Churchill, ngwazi yathu yothandiza anthu yolengeza zakuphedwa kwa anthu 10,800 pomwe ndi magulu 49 okha aku Britain omwe adaphedwa kuti akhale "opambana kuposa onse omwe asayansi apambana akunja. ” Koma zambiri mwabukuli zimayang'ana kwambiri pakupanga ndi kukonza kwa ufumu waku US. McCoy anena kuti "Pazaka 20 zotsatira [WWII], maufumu khumi omwe analamulira gawo limodzi mwa magawo atatu a anthu adzalowe m'malo mwa mayiko 100 odziyimira pawokha," ndipo masamba ambiri pambuyo pake akuti, "Pakati pa 1958 ndi 1975, magulu ankhondo, mwa maboma omwe amathandizidwa ndi Amereka, omwe asintha m'mayiko atatu - kotala la mayiko odziyimira pawokha - ndikulimbikitsa 'kusintha' komwe kwayamba kukhala demokalase. ” (Pepani tsoka la munthu woyamba kunena izi pamsonkhano wa Purezidenti Joe Biden Democracy.)
McCoy akuyang'ananso kukula kwachuma komanso ndale ku China, kuphatikiza lamba ndi misewu, yomwe - pa $ 1.3 trilioni - amatchula kuti "ndalama zazikulu kwambiri m'mbiri ya anthu," mwina osawona $ 21 trilioni akuyikiridwa kunkhondo yaku US ku zaka 20 zapitazi. Mosiyana ndi kuchuluka kwa anthu pa Twitter, McCoy samaneneratu kuti dziko lonse la China lisanafike Khrisimasi. "Inde," a McCoy akulemba, "kupatula kuchuluka kwachuma ndi zankhondo, China ili ndi chikhalidwe chodziyimira pawokha, imabwerezanso zilembo zosakhala zachiroma (zomwe zimafunikira zilembo zikwi zinayi m'malo mwa zilembo 26), mabungwe andale osagwirizana ndi demokalase, ndi malamulo ena ochepa izi zingatsutse zina mwa zida zazikulu zoyendetsera utsogoleri wapadziko lonse lapansi. ”
McCoy akuwoneka kuti sakuganiza kuti maboma omwe amadzitcha kuti demokalase kwenikweni ndi demokalase, makamaka pofotokoza kufunikira kwa demokalase PR ndi chikhalidwe pakufalikira kwa ufumu, kufunikira kogwiritsa ntchito "nkhani yadziko lonse lapansi komanso yophatikiza." Kuyambira 1850 mpaka 1940, malinga ndi a McCoy, Britain idalimbikitsa chikhalidwe cha "kusewera mwachilungamo," "misika yaulere," ndikutsutsa ukapolo, ndipo United States idagwiritsa ntchito makanema aku Hollywood, makalabu a Rotary, masewera otchuka, komanso nkhani zake zonse " ufulu wachibadwidwe ”poyambitsa nkhondo komanso kumenya nkhondo mwankhanza ankhanza.
Pankhani yakugwa kwachifumu, a McCoy akuganiza kuti masoka achilengedwe achepetsa mphamvu yaku US yankhondo zakunja. (Ndikudziwa kuti ndalama zankhondo yaku US zikukwera, asitikali aku adatuluka yamapangano azanyengo pakupempha kwa US, ndipo asitikali aku US ali kulimbikitsa lingaliro la nkhondo ngati yankho la masoka achilengedwe.) McCoy akuganiza kuti kukwera kwamitengo ya anthu okalamba kutembenuza US kuti isagwiritse ntchito ndalama. (Ndikudziwa kuti ndalama zankhondo yaku US zikukwera, ziphuphu zaboma la US zikukwera; Kusalingana kwa chuma ku US ndi umphawi zikukwera; ndikuti zabodza zaku US zathetsa lingaliro la chisamaliro monga ufulu waumunthu kuchokera kuubongo wambiri waku US.)
Tsogolo limodzi lomwe McCoy anganene ndi dziko lomwe Brazil, US, China, Russia, India, Iran, South Africa, Turkey, ndi Egypt akulamulira zigawo zapadziko lapansi. Sindikuganiza kuti mphamvu ndi kuchuluka kwa makampani opanga zida, kapena malingaliro olamulira, zimaloleza kuthekera koteroko. Ndikuganiza kuti mwina titha kupita kumalamulo ndikukhala ndi zida zankhondo kapena kuwona nkhondo yapadziko lonse lapansi. McCoy akatembenukira ku mutu wa kugwa kwanyengo, akuwonetsa kuti mabungwe padziko lonse lapansi adzafunika - monga momwe akhala akufunira kale. Funso ndiloti tingathe kukhazikitsa ndi kulimbikitsa mabungwe oterewa pamaso pa Ufumu wa US, ngakhale panali maufumu angati kapena kampani yoyipa yomwe akuyikapo pano.
