It’s too late.
With the exception of Bagge, Remy and occasionally the good Liz and Robby, this place is proof.
The book is great. The only thing I fault it for is the title; it implies a simple one or two hour read, a single lesson, when it's more like a single source, a semester's worth of multiple lessons.
You lost, and now it's too late. Discussions about how to keep the global economy from collapsing are moot. Nothing at this point can prevent the USD from hyper inflation, and taking the rest of the world down with it. Probably sooner rather than later as the US is quadrupling and octupling down on higher deficit spending.
It's not a question about how to prevent economic collapse, but what to do to prepare for it.
