Max Keiser: Americans Are Euthanized by Big Banks
The human race is not ready/mature enough for a Type 1 civilization and pushing us towards it will only result in a hard restart that could potentially bring us back to the stone ages. I believe that this has happen in our past (possibly multiple times). A world wide event that "restart" civilization would be extremely hard to prove as little evidence would remain, aside from what is passed on orally by the fragile survivors whose survival now becomes priority over all other concerns.
