It was just a question how much freedom do
Do we need to sacrifice in order to lower the tensions and defang the extremes?
So today, in a very similar position, the world as a whole does not agree on what is the right social policies, political systems, economic systems, business systems.
And if we don't agree, what is the right thing to do, alternatives proliferate.
So today there are various alternatives competing against.
Against each other, whether it's China, Russia, Iran, US trying to redefine what it is, Europe is trying to redefine what it is.
And we're in this period which might last up to a decade, where ultimately we will find a compromise.
Ultimately, there will be a consensus that will be established.
And the only question the book asks: do we need to go through the world of fire of 1940s?
Or can we just go straight into 1950?
And forget the nineteen forties.
Totally, totally.
I mean if you think of I usually describe it as three eyes: inflation, inequalities, immigration.
Yeah.
If you think of those three elements, if you combine them, that pretty much explains almost everything you need to know.
So if inflation was much lower in a sense of absolute prices have come down to a level that people regard as acceptable.
If inequalities
Whether it's wealth or income, were much better managed.
If immigration was not a major issue either in Europe or in the United States, most other issues, whether it's cultural wars or anything else, will just fade into oblivion.
So, in other words, the cultural issues color how you look at those three eyes.
