good links, here's a new Mead card
Slipping into depression now causes great power war
Mead 2/4 – Senior Fellow in U.S. Foreign Policy at the Council on Foreign Relations (Walter Russell, Only Makes You Stronger, The New Republic, http://www.tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=571cbbb9-2887-4d81-8542-92e83915f5f8&p=2, AG)
Bad economic times can breed wars. Europe was a pretty peaceful place in 1928, but the Depression poisoned German public opinion and helped bring Adolf Hitler to power. If the current crisis turns into a depression, what rough beasts might start slouching toward Moscow, Karachi, Beijing, or New Delhi to be born? The United States may not, yet, decline, but, if we can't get the world economy back on track, we may still have to fight.
There are good global (especially China) economic collapse impacts in that article, too.
That new mead card is pretty useful-nice.
Now you gotta find some feb de-dev cards batterman.
