If in doubt, read the official motto of the U.S., for sixty years now found on all U.S. currency printed or minted: “In God We Trust.” Are you ready for the next tsunami?
Remember the seaquake that sent flood waves of up to 25 ft. (~ 9 m) over the shores of the city of Fukushima, Japan, in 2011. Those tsunami waves flooded the lower parts of the local nuclear power plant (where, not so wisely, the emergency generators for critical cooling were located) and, eventually, caused a partial meltdown of some of the plant’s reactors.
As any mariner knows, a rising/falling sea raises/lowers all ships alike. However, the tsunami I’m referring to is not one that is caused by heaving or slipping parts of the earth’s crust but by the people who want change of the powers that govern in a variety of countries. No matter where you look, many people appear to be dissatisfied with their current leaderships.
As an example, just look at the recent decision by U.S. citizens to vote for an “anti-establishment” candidate. Similar shifts of seismic proportions have already been seen elsewhere (e.g. “Brexit”) and can reasonably be expected to come soon to other places as well.
The widespread desire for change cannot simply be swept under the rug and forgotten.
