Vladimir Rojankovski - This World is Built on Lies

But, the strange thing is, the more uniformly people live around the world the more conflicting became international politics: rising geopolitical tensions, rapidly expanding government borrowing and the threat of more taxes and regulations to jeopardize our common future prospects.

One of the biggest problems is that the cost of living continues to outpace wages in many places. For example, someone earning the $7.25-an-hour federal minimum wage would need to work almost 127 hours a week to afford a two-bedroom rental, or 103 hours a week to afford a one-bedroom rental, according to a report published this year by the U.S. National Low Income Housing Coalition.

As back in the late 1980’s when the Iron Curtain was dismantled and one third of the world opened its welcoming markets to the prosperous and promising free economy, it began its countdown to the time when it has bumped straight into the apparent wall of further expansion. This outcome was easy to predict.

However, over these past thirty years we just enjoyed mutual penetration of the markets and cultures but did almost nothing to sustain the pace of scientific and research progress. Thus the Internet was created in the late 80s— early 90s. Very popular nowadays electric cars were first invented, believe it or not, around the 1870s. The oil fracking technology tracks back to the early 1990s. What else can we mention? Smart phones and smart homes, perhaps? Yes, but one can argue that these innovations appeared as a result of further expansion of the information technologies, the foundation of which were laid out much earlier.
