COMING SOON – Why Matter Matters & How National Capitalism Won with Craig Tindale

According to Australian investor and essayist Craig Tindale, we are in an era of Hard Bifurcation, a terminal rupture between the monetary economy and the physical world.

But that linkage is dead, and we have entered a state of Impedance Mismatch.

According to Tindale, Western policymakers must evolve their mandates to reflect the hard physics of strategic rivalry and material constraint.

Power belongs to the system that aligns its money with matter first.
