The world has turned, says the economist James Hoppe, a senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, and it has become more difficult to turn that around, because the world economy now works as if it were a living organism, as if by some very sophisticated machinery, and it is doing very well under the current rules of accounting and other kinds of accounting and the like.

The fact that many of the world’s richest peoplefrom the richest man to the richest man in this countrywill soon be required to buy up their own stocks doesn’t mean that the future is better for everyone. It means that in the short run, the world will face a major social crisis. As a leading scholar of the Middle Ages, historian David Autor writes in a blog post this morning, the world population will increase by a rate of one million per year for many decades to come.

And when it comes to politics, that’s going to not happen for very long. The economy in the United Statesthe economy of the wealthy, the economy of the poorwill have to adapt to what the new rules of the economy will mean.

But in the long run, the United States will have to confront the crisis in a way that is not just more about getting wealthyit is about getting to grips with its current political status quo on a huge scale.

This was certainly the case in 2008, at the height of the Occupy movement. With the onset of the political crisis in Iraq, the United States was at war with its allies within the Gulf Cooperation Council, with a series of international agreements that were designed to put the region’s government, Saddam Hussein, in charge. This is actually not the sort of political solution we’re trying to solve. Instead, it’s the kind of solution we’ve been hoping for for several reasons.
