Allies & enemies are lining up

What about this idea that could the world just bifurcate? Um, where you have more than like countries that align more like the U.S. and U.S. values versus, you know, thinking like China, Russia?

Um, first of all, it's happening. Um, and by the way, I would say it's less really around values than it is around practicalities. You know, who am I trading with? Who's going to be economically, militarily advantageous? Um, it’s just basically economics and military.

Who's going to be advantageous? Um, and so, um, you know, it's happening that way. Um, however, we are extremely connected. When you have the bifurcation, it's extremely costly and extremely risky. So we're having it like each country is thinking, if I was to go to war, will I be self-sufficient?

Okay? And then the developing of resources to try to be self-sufficient doesn't lend itself to efficiency. That's not the primary objective. And then to disconnect is very, very difficult. You know, um, we are, you know, um, electronically, digitally, uh, connected to the fraction of a second.

Getting people or stuff from one place to another is shorter than it has ever been. And it's a very risky environment. So bifurcation, um, means, by the way, of the example, less harmonization, less world order.
