Securing Necessities,
Tim Morgan at Surplus Energy Economics, Robert’s Paradigm: THE POLITICS OF ECONOMIC CONTRACTION
The great fact of our times – “everywhere visible, nowhere acknowledged” – is the ending and reversal of economic growth.
In Henry’s paradox, we looked at some of the implications for business of this inflexion from economic expansion into contraction.
Our interest here is in the politics of economic decline. The Robert of our title is Victorian politician Robert Lowe, and his paradigm is that whatever happens in politics is a function of trends in economic conditions...
..We can, for convenience, divide the economic backdrop to politics since the Second World War into three broad eras.
The Keynesian Consensus of the post-war years was replaced, at the end of the 1970s, with a New Liberal Ascendancy, most closely associated in the public eye with Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan.
This ascendancy then mutated, dating from the 1990s, into a Post-Capitalist Expediency, in which New Liberal economic precepts were abandoned, in all but name, in favour of the preservation, by whatever means, of the post-Keynesian structures of wealth and power.
This transition occurred in conjunction with an economic deceleration identifiable as the precursor stage for the ending of economic growth...
..Decreasing prosperity, and rises in the real costs of necessities, will make it impossible to continue to combine an acquiescent sufficiency for the majority with the maintenance of the exorbitant privilege of a minority...The Keynesian Consensus of the post-war years was replaced, at the end of the 1970s, with a New Liberal Ascendancy, most closely associated in the public eye with Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan.
This ascendancy then mutated, dating from the 1990s, into a Post-Capitalist Expediency, in which New Liberal economic precepts were abandoned, in all but name, in favour of the preservation, by whatever means, of the post-Keynesian structures of wealth and power.
This transition occurred in conjunction with an economic deceleration identifiable as the precursor stage for the ending of economic growth...
..The Post-Capitalist Expediency has little or no ideological content, and we would be unwise to expect some kind of resumed ideological contest along the lines of the capital-versus-labour conflicts of the twentieth century.
As social complexity contracts, and centralised, top-down systems start to fail, ungovernability – the failure of government to sustain the support of the public – may be more likely...
..Robert Lowe’s interest to us in 2025, though, lies in is his definition of politics as a contest “between those who have – to keep what they have got; and those who have not – to get it”. This essentially economic basis of politics is Robert’s paradigm.As social complexity contracts, and centralised, top-down systems start to fail, ungovernability – the failure of government to sustain the support of the public – may be more likely...
The rigorously logical Lowe was neither a democrat nor an aristocrat, but a meritocrat, so much so that, according to one contemporary, he was “all for a wise despotism”...
..One of the biggest differences between 1918 and 1945 was that few were minded, at the end of the Second World War, to try to revert to the “business as usual” of the pre-war years... John Maynard Keynes gave governments new tools for the management of what was then known as the “business cycle”...
..This was an era of extremely benign economic conditions. In the quarter century after 1945, the dream of mass motoring became a Western reality, and many economic benefits – such as domestic appliances – ceased to be the preserve of a fortunate minority. There were times in this period when global petroleum consumption increased by more than 8% in a single year, something which has latterly become unthinkable.The rapid economic growth enjoyed in the Keynesian consensus era was made possible by favourable changes in the supply of energy to the economy. Just as oil was supplanting coal as the primary source of energy, so the Energy Cost of Energy dropped to levels well below 1%...
..The Keynesian Consensus broke down in the 1970s in a series of events triggered by the oil export embargo implemented by the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries in October 1973. The OAPEC embargo was lifted in March 1974, but, in the intervening months, the price of oil had quadrupled, from $3/barrel to almost $12/b. This triggered a wave of stagflation, with economies slumping at the same time as inflation soared...
..Although all of these adversities were traceable to the oil crisis, New Liberal opponents of the Keynesian ascendancy succeeded in convincing the public that they were caused by “left-wing” governments and “over-mighty” labour unions.The solutions to the hardships of the 1970s lay, they said, in shrinking the state, deregulating the economy and curbing the powers of organized labour...
..A collapse in oil prices at the end of 1985...added to the favourable economic impetus delivered by the reversal of some of the adverse pressures of the 1970s... ..The New Liberal Ascendancy reached its apotheosis in the early 1990s. With the Deng reforms already steering China away from the hard-line orthodoxy of the revolution, the collapse of the USSR symbolized, for many, the final victory of market liberalism over economic collectivism... ..Energy Cost of Energy had started to rise relentlessly as older, low-cost sources of fossil fuel energy were depleted, and replaced by costlier alternatives...Trend ECoE from all sources of energy rose from 2.0% in 1980 to 3.0% in 1990, and 4.3% in 2000. The latter of these moves seems to have been pivotal, since the ‘catch-up’ growth of the 1980s was followed by a marked deceleration which was sometimes labelled “secular stagnation”... ..By the mid-1990s, concerns about sluggish growth were compounded by the emerging need to fill the ‘globalization gap’ between high consumption and comparatively stagnant incomes in the Western economies. The result was the adoption of policies designed to make it easier than ever before for Westerners to access credit. This “credit adventurism” put the system onto an arc of inevitability that led, via the global financial crisis (GFC I) of 2008-09, to the “monetary adventurism” of QE, ZIRP and NIRP... ..Whilst the “credit adventurism” adopted in the 1990s did not, of itself, abrogate these principles, it triggered a series of processes whereby the market capitalist thesis was eviscerated by the events that began in 2008. During and after GFC I, markets were rigged to keep rates low, and asset prices high. Prior commitments to minimal market interference were dropped, and investors could no longer earn satisfactory real returns on capital. This amounted to the replacement, by stealth, of the New Liberal Ascendancy with a Post-Capitalist Expediency. The principles of liberal market economics had quietly been dropped... ..What happens from here is a contest between the beneficiaries and the opponents of the new system of entitled expediency. The outcome of this iteration of Robert’s paradigm will be determined by economic trends that the authorities and the elites are powerless to control... Relentlessly rising ECoEs (see Fig. 1A) will exert tightening pressure on the surplus (ex-ECoE) energy that is the physical corollary of economic prosperity (Fig. 1B)... .."Clean” (credit-adjusted) economic output will follow the curve of gross energy supply (Fig. 1D), whilst rising ECoEs will widen the gap between output and prosperity (Figs. 2A and 2B).
..The economic aim of governments today is to maintain the status quo by combining an acquiescent sufficiency for the majority with the continued exorbitant privilege of a minority (Fig. 2C). The further the economy contracts, the more difficult this balancing-act becomes. This means that questions of redistribution are poised to return to the top of the political agenda. At the same time, wholly unsustainable burdens of debt and quasi-debt (Fig. 2D) are likely to undermine the essentially financial power-base of the Post-Capitalist Expediency... As the economy contracts, governments may find themselves needing to give more to ‘the poor’ than they can possibly take from ‘the rich’... Modern wealth overwhelmingly exists in paper form, and is valued, in the aggregate, by the application of marginal prices to the total stock of assets. If governments tried to expropriate these assets, most of their supposed ‘value’ would evaporate as prices slumped... ..Intensifying competition for dwindling resources is likely to drive a disorderly rather than a structured and organised transition to a post-growth social realignment. https://

How Trump Just Turned Europe Into A Vassal Market
US trade deal will fuel EU’s ‘deindustrialization’ – Lavrov
The agreement has dealt a “very hard blow” to a number of business sectors in the bloc, the Russian foreign minister has said https://swentr.site/russia/622090-us-eu-trade-deal-deindustrialization/
Yet what’s accelerating now is rather the “fragmentation of the international monetary system”. So we should expect increased use of yuan in payment settlements and as “a store of value”; that’s already happening all across BRICS.
Miao points to the key vector: the yuan is now “a low-interest currency, while the US dollar is high-interest.” Trump 2.0 tariffs “on all countries have contributed to the appreciation” of the yuan.
This high-speed train is now leaving the station: “By leveraging China’s manufacturing strengths in sectors such as machinery, electronics, and new energy equipment”, China is encouraging BRICS nations and partners to use the yuan “for trade settlement, thereby creating a self-sustaining cycle” driven by “real trade demand.” https://strategic-culture.su/

..Think of it like the people around Trump wanting to show lawyers the evidence in the documents. However, because of the construct of the lawfare being deployed against Trump, any lawyer would need a *reason* to review the evidence. The Trump -v- Clinton et al lawsuit becomes that ‘reason.’...
..In addition to previous executive privilege established by President Trump himself; outside government there is now another silo to defend against the motives of the Lawfare crew (DOJ), the attorney-client privilege... ..The lawsuit itself then becomes a transfer mechanism permitting sharing of the documents and providing legal cover for the reviewers (lawyers). The details within the 108-page filing constitute the claims of the plaintiff in the lawsuit, which were established by the evidentiary documents later seized by the DOJ and FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago...

He was executing Trump’s next phase of the takedown—a scorched-earth strategy targeting elites, royals, Hollywood icons, tech moguls, and Deep State agents alike. Maxwell answered every question without invoking privilege. Her attorney confirmed it: No refusals. No denials. Full exposure. This wasn’t for sentence reduction. This was war protocol.

Abstract: We describe a rare case of TAFRO syndrome that developed after the second vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 (mRNA1273, manufactured by Moderna Co.) in a healthy 26-year-old male.
He developed a prolonged high fever and intermittent non-localized abdominal pain soon after vaccination followed by impaired renal function and thrombocytopenia; as well as assumed cytokine storm due to serum levels of triglyceride and total cholesterol, and high serum levels of ferritin, soluble interleukin 2 receptor, soluble CD14, interleukin 6, and vascular endothelial growth factor. Based on these findings, the patient was diagnosed with TAFRO syndrome. His condition was refractory against glucocorticoid, tocilizumab, and rituximab, and temporary haemodialysis was necessary.
We speculate that the mRNA vaccine triggered a modification of the immune system and caused the development of TAFRO syndrome. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.
