87. World economy has strong ties to the US economy.
This is beginning to change, but even now, if the US economy crashes, the rest of the worlds economies are most likely to follow.

The mindset at play here is "Do I have the biggest slice of pie?" They don't care how big the pie is, so long as they get most of it.

As put in the article which started this thread, the message given to the public is that everything is fine. The word being given to the power brokers is "everythings gonna go down the tubes." Likely, those at the highest echelons were informed years ago, and are already prepared. Those finding out now, behind closed doors, are more likely being told so that their actions will TRIGGER events, not so that they can avoid them.

The rest of us, in front page newspaper land, continue blithly on.
