    Afterwards, “economy in a recession” is synonymous to “free buffet” to those at the reins.

    Not at all wrong, but there’s only so much blood parasites can suck before the host dies (and with luck kills the parasites, and / or sends a strong signal to everybody else to get their infestations eradicated, or at the very least under control), and that host is already hurting bad.

    Perhaps I’m being optimistic, but a collapse of the likely magnitude could be that straw, or maybe it’ll just be the back of US influence that breaks.
