    a lot can happen in 45, 50 years. I have more hope in the left getting its shit together in that time than me personally making and saving 3 million dollars

      I'm with you. I hope the left can take advantage of the coming multipolar world and become a force strong enough to give the working class the relief and dignity it needs and deserves. But I have to admit, I am pretty pessimistic about the imperial core and fear things there will get much worse before better. Sounds like I'm older than you though. In 50 years I'd be 90 (in other words, long dead). If the left does get its shit together, like you said, I hope it happens relatively quickly. Certainly agree it's more likely than me getting $3mil too.

        That pessimism seems warranted. I don't see how we get a DotP or even just a competent state without things getting much, much worse than now first.
