Every country that hosted a Fifa World Cup since 2010 had a major crisis in the following four years.

2010 - South Africa - Its social and economical crisis become more evident after the tournament.

2014 - Brazil - The biggest economical and political crisis in its recent history in 2015-16.

2018 - Russia - In 2022 it invaded Ukraine in its 4 years and counting "Special Operation", now it is a drone target practice.

2022 - Qatar - Now the Persian Gulf is blockaded, it is a warzone, was bombed by Iran, Ras Laffan is damaged and offline.

2026 - US, Mexico and Canada - will WIAH predictions happen?

2030 - if the pattern keeps going I don't to be in Iberia, but things are already bad there.

Everything just lines up too perfectly for there to be an economic recovery and boom in the 2030s with the adventure of new technologies, the post COVID crisis ending, China and Europe facing problems, etc.

Sure right now, it's not distributed but the next probably Democrat administration definitely could start distributing it through welfare. It'll be especially powerful if they managed to pass universal healthcare and save hundreds of billions of dollars.

However, this will not fix any of the social problems in America. If anything it'll worsen it. Americans will use their new found surplus wealth in parties, new houses, collections, etc, giving an illusion of prosperity while socially becoming even more atomized and miserable.

If there is a Second American Civil War, I think it'll come right after the boom finally ends and it's revealed there was nothing more holding the scaffolding together.

Plus, if we are going with the Weimer parallel then this could be the boom before the Great Depression.
