Peter Zeihan is a famous American geopolitical who recently appeared on episode 1921 of The Joe Rogan Experience (full episode here https://open.spotify.com/episode/406fOiiKMU0ot5AS1AIwve). He talks about a lot of topics, but I want to discuss what he says about China and specifically what he gets wrong. Zeihan is keen to predict China's collapse, and his supporters are clearly even keener for his predictions to come true. But I'm not so sure Zeihan can see the future, as his grasp on the present (and past) seems shaky at best.Let's talk demographic collapse, technological development, and labour efficiency in China!Chapters00:00 Intro03:30 The Accidental Superpower09:55 Impending Demographic Doom20:50 China's lack of technological advancement28:10 Chinese labour is inefficient30:39: Bits and bobs34:23 Summary and Conclusion: I disagreeSourcesThe Accidental Superpower: The Next Generation of American Preeminence and the Coming Global Disorder Kindle Edition - Peter ZeihanChallenging Myths About China's One-Child Policy, by Whyte, Feng and Cai, 2015 Ogawa, N., & Retherford, R.

Today's Flash Back Friday is from episode 442 published last November 21, 2014. Geography and demographic patterns prove their importance in the discussions featured on today's Creating Wealth Show. Jason Hartman talks to Peter Zeihan, author of The Accidental Superpower, about the many factors which have affected the economic and social growth of America and several other vital world powers.

He puts a timeline on it. The book isn’t about “some hazy distant future after we’re all dead and gone, but the future we will all be living in for the next fifteen years of our lives.” Zeihan’s subtitle hints at his big and bold thesis, which predicts “the dissolution of the free trade order, the global demographic inversion, the collapse of Europe and China,” which “is all just a fleeting transition” to a world largely abandoned by America.

An avid political commentator and author, David has recently published his New York Times Best Selling book, Trumpocracy.   Today, David will be interviewed by John Nicola, CEO of Nicola Wealth Management. They discuss the current political landscape in the U.S., such as the recent mail bombings and synagogue shooting, and all things Trumpocracy. David also gives his predictions of the U.S. through Trump's Presidency, his take on the U.S. MCA, and his views on the trade war with China. Key Takeaways: [:29] About today's topic and guest. [:53] Did David Frum expect his quote from Trumpocracy to come true? ("The thing to fear from the Trump presidency is not the bold overthrow of the Constitution, but the stealthy paralysis of governance; not the open defiance of law, but an accumulating subversion of norms; not the deployment of state power to intimidate dissidents, but the incitement of private violence to radicalize supporters.") [2:56] David breaks down the difference between the recent mail bombing and the tragic synagogue shooting. [4:40] Does David predict that there will be more of these incited violent incidents through Trump's Presidency? [7:04] Does David agree with Peter Zeihan in that the framework the U.S. has created, shaped the environment that made “Trump” possible? [11:24] Is the American agenda changing, or is it the Trump agenda? [13:36] David's view on the trade issues with China. [16:19] As we look forward, does David see any rational thinking entering into the process of the trade war with China or is Trump too dogmatic? [21:04] David's take on the U.S. MCA.   Mentioned in this Episode: Trumpocracy: The Corruption of the American Republic, by David Frum Trump mail bombing incident Synagogue shooting The Accidental Superpower: The Next Generation of American Preeminence and the Coming Global Disorder, by Peter Zeihan The Absent Superpower: The Shale Revolution and a World Without America, by Peter Zeihan   Guest Bios David Frum One of the most influential political analysts of our time, David Frum brings a rational conscience into the mainstream and the often-polarized world of American politics.

[26:48] – All of the various financial crashes are happening for the same reasons and we need to learn from them.

[32:08] – Boundaries and ideas are starting to change for retirees, but those staying on in work are still in the minority.
