Yes. USA economy is not much better shaped than the same just before 1929 and in that case there is no Roosevelt in sight, instead a neoliberist gang that sometimes call themselves "world government" [1] they push a new New Deal that instead of pushing Keynesian economies (witch was not sufficient without WWII anyway) push even worst/stronger economic crush to maximize very few actors profits.
As always they need a war for economic reason, but that's just one aspect, there are also:
- China need of food who bring them to South America, the nearest and richest reserve for USA, and to reach their goal China need to expand on the seas where USA and UK base their dominance to a point some call them talassocracies;
- both USA and UK (and Canada, even if demographically can't do much and it's still under UK umbrella) are on the brink of a civil war due to neoliberst squeeze of prosperity. A war historically unite their populations accepting no matter what just to "help the Nation", typically against their own Citizens interests as a community, so "the nation against their Demos";
- EU was about to ditch from the anglosphere accepting one of the nth proposal from Russia fed. for a partnership with mutual benefits instead of the unfair one we have with USA and UK, again the war act as an effective excuse to stop such move;
- the war hide the covid scandal, at least postponed it and lowering it possibly to a level of the equal scandals from the recent past (see the press, just after H2N2 (1957), H3N2 (1968), SARS-CoV (2003), H5N1 (2004), H1N1 (2009), MERS-CoV (2012) to read them and the pattern of the "while" part);
- Russia itself is growing and aspiring to be back as an old empire, a very fragile but very resourceful, a thing both USA and UK can't accept, China is doomed by it's location and demography, Russia is not.
The neoliberist west actually live on "monetary constipation" entirely, Europe included, and in an era of scarce resources overthrown the table (Great Reset) hoping it suffice to gain a chance does dot work much. It might work against small and poor opponents, not against growing superpowers. That's is.
Oh, BTW that's a not much accepted topic on HN but since the recent opening to not HN-proper topics like politics: many USA and UK people fail to understand what socialists also from UK and USA have well understood in the past, witch means that their ruling class is not their country and actually it's acting against them, so try to be "patriotic" is the exact opposite of what most do, witch is supporting their clepocratic rulers, acting patriotically would be for them demanding the annihilation of neoliberist institutes, private-public cancers that devour their countries not only others ones. They fear if they are not united under their ruler they'll be lost not considering that actually is the exact contrary because no matter what people in the world suffer similar pain caused by similar criminals so others have no interests against them but against their rulers, witch means others have a common enemy.
