> But if we are unfortunate, it may quickly become every nation for themselves. The EU was supposed to be a union, but when COVID started getting really bad in Italy, what did Austria do? They shut the border to Italy. I do fear it will be every nation for themselves, just like individuals are selfish and worry first about their survival, it'll be nations/tribes doing the same (and the worse things get, even tribes will start in-fighting). I say tribes, I feel like violence against anyone who looks different will worsen with scarcity. I feel like leaders of the rich countries are just closing their eyes to the global disaster (because trying to make a more ecological world is a vote loser, just look at Macron's attempt at taxing fuel more), they're probably hoping there'll be some magical solution, and that before that, if the people are going to die, it'll be the poor of the world without bothering them them too much...
