Andrew Batson — When “It’s the economy, stupid” falls short

Economists see everything in economic issues. reality is more complicated, and complex, than that simple point of view.

The US Seventh Fleet is massing battle units in the vicinity of China to force a Chinese withdrawal of territorial claims and an imminent US/NATO coordinated attack on eastern Ukraine is being prepared to pressure Russia, the choice being either capitulation or fighting NATO. 

This is actually contra the economic interests of most nations and about the projection of imperial power. It is political, that is, about who controls territory. This precedes economics.
