The center cannot hold because it has failed the nation by defending the Status Quo kleptocracy. As a case study, let’s look at Greece, a nation that is the leading-edge of Status Quo delegitimization and destabilization. As the Status Quo fails to protect the national interests and the citizenry from the neofeudal kleptocracy, faith in the political center fades. What happens when people lose faith in the financial institutions and their coercive “fixes”? They move their capital to less-risky, more productive climes. In other words, capital flight is another positive feedback: as people move their capital out of the country, then there is less available per capita for productive investment. The same holds true for every nation ruled by kleptocratic Elites that has attempted to “grow our way out of debt” by piling debt on debt. Doesn’t that include Spain, Italy, China, the U.S. and a host of other nations?
