Re:_War's_ not likely (Score 1)

I think the interdependence of our economies will grow so extreme as to make war with a country like China simply imprudent. Let's face it--we fight economically prudent wars.

That's what people thought before WW1, that war was impossible because of the brothership of Workers in all the countries, and the need for trade.

Historically, people always believe that they are at the height of civilisation, and that such things are unthinkable.
