The oil crisis has already exploded and the world’s reserves are depleted. Two more weeks or two more months are not accurately reflecting the true crisis: we are past the point of no return to a functional world economy. The world’s economies and distribution lines will take time to recover whenever this Israeli driven war ends. And that makes an assumption that most governments will recover.
While it is pointless to speculate how this crisis ends, let’s consider a best case scenario. The AI bubble has been exposed as a Ponzi scheme which will collapse the stock market. And banks. And the technology sector.
This is inevitable: the US debt will shortly breach the $40 trillion mark. Most Western nations are in the same economic situation. Oil is just one of many catalysts but it will be the scapegoat for the worldwide depression.
Couple economic collapse with massive civil unrest and governments will be falling quickly. It looks like French style revolutions are back on the menu. And as I said, that is a best case scenario.
