1913Intel suggests:

A large part of the world is in a pre-collapse state. Russia, China, America, Europe and Japan are in danger of collapse, economic or otherwise. The Middle East is now in the state of collapse. The UN predicts “global social crisis” stemming from the 2008-2009 economic downturn.

Looking at the big picture, is the world as we know it about to collapse? Are we in much bigger trouble than we think?
