While we can't be sure of the severity of the downturn, certainly, the demographic argument is a strong one. And #Trump wants fewer people to come to America. My hope is that #Bannon doesn't help this thing get out of hand. I have no doubt he would like to see the mother of all crashes. After all, he owns a media outlet. He can't make money when things are going good. JMO, of course.
My concern is that if this stock market crash does happen, #Trump will look around for a way out. #Bannon's way out is war, in the Middle East and against China, maybe both at the same time. Demagogues always look at war as a means of expanding the money supply. If Trump takes that advice it could mean trouble.
You make an interesting but cryptic final statement: "Five or ten years from now, a possible market share ‘oil war’ would take place on a totally different battleground, and some regiments or battalions may lack essential armory to wage such war." Does this imply a #Bannon type physical war for total control of #oil in the Middle East?

The Oil War Is Only Just Getting Started
