thedred-panda.bsky.social @thedred-panda.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The word limit's annoying, anyways, that single good economy can help consolidate power under one usually corrupt entity. Commodities like oil, rare earth metals, gems and minerals, and, of course, bananas. And as soon as supply overwhelms demand for that commodity, the economy collapses. 110

I'm not disagreeing with you that things in the US are getting really insane.
