"William F. Buckley was not the only Yale figure connected with the Presidential trip to China. Without Yale's support Mao Tse Tung may never have risen from obscurity to command China..." (And these guys are bragging about it in 1972, after the despicable "Cultural Revolution" was winding down.)
Also note that Yale was initially funded by the Russels, the most successful family of opium dealers in America. Why is this important? Well, if you're dealing opium at a high level back then, you had a connection with the British powers that defeated China in the Opium wars. What happens after a nation is defeated? You install a new government that does what you want.
Mark my words: the criminals that run this world have a long-term plan and the type of government seen in China is their model for what's coming for everybody after they've concluded their work in causing the decline of the US. It's fucking scary and I really hope I'm wrong.
In both crisis he mentioned stagflation, which can happen when there is a supply shock (like oil prices increasing) and governments growing the money supply too quickly. Now we are suffering a supply shock but also a big demand shock (just look at oil prices...) which makes the situation different. This doesn't mean that inflation won't increase once the first stage of the crisis is over (specially in food, which will impact developing countries the most), but I think it is far from the most important thing to worry about right now.
