U-Tube: Jeffrey Sachs: America's bluff has been called - The End of US Dominance? NETIZENS COMMENTS: *******11-09-2026

 

Congratulations for having Jeffrey Sachs and his wonderful lecture. And it's a shame, that your media is censured. Both of you: fantastic!

Only just started watching, and I bow to no-one in my admiration for Mr Sachs, but twice in his opening remarks he's said '2,000 years' - civilisations from Mesopotamia and extending Eastwards from there, go back much longer than that. Thousands of years longer! Chinese civilisation goes back at least 3,000 years, but there was writing and cities in the region of the Persian Gulf going back over 4,000 years. This comment is pure pedantry, and I apologise. I just can't help myself! ;-)

The United States is ALL about capitalist power. Democracy is irrelevant.
America's unipolar moment only lasted 35 years from 1991 to 2026. This year, 2026, is when America lost its global primacy. America is losing its financial grip on the world. Other countries are moving away from the US financial system. America is losing its diplomatic influence. It has alienated nearly every country, including its allies! America is losing its military influence. It has lost several major wars this century, including Afghanistan, Syria, and Iran. It has lost its bases in the Middle East. China has surpassed America in many ways: (1) China is the largest economy by purchasing power parity. (2) China's economy is growing at TWICE the rate of the US economy. (3) China's industrial output exceeds that of America, Japan and Germany combined. (4) China leads the world in 66 of 74 critical technologies. China has 9 of the Top 10 and 19 of the Top 25 STEM universities. China graduates 10 times more engineers than America. (5) China has the largest army, largest navy (by ship count) and largest rocket force (including hypersonic missiles). China has the newest navy, as well. (6) China is favoured internationally more than America, thanks to the BRI, BRICS and SCO.

You can always count on Sachs to trash America whenever he gets the chance, although, admittedly, he's accurate about Trump.
jeffrey is our cassandra. constantly scolding, with no visible improvement in government. perhaps there is money in it? i hope so, because improving human society appears to be a lost cause.

I am from Ukraine and do not agree with the professor in his description of what happened in Ukraine. We were fighting for freedom against the dictatorship supported by Russia. We moved toward Western civilization and values and USA does not have anything to do with this.
The fact is, not long ago the war was between Israel and Iran over Genocides in Gaza. What business did the US have to poke its nose and take a fight with Iran? Warmongers!
