While initially banded together for investment opportunities, in the last decade, BRICS has become an economic rival to G7. Several of their initiatives include building an alternate global bank, with dialogue underway for a payment system and new reserve currency.
Below is a quick look at both groups’ contribution to the world economy in PPP-adjusted terms.
| Global GDP Share | 1992 | 2002 | 2012 | 2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRICS | 16.45% | 19.34% | 28.28% | 31.67% |
| G7 | 45.80% | 42.34% | 32.82% | 30.31% |
A major contributing factor to BRICS’ rise is Chinese and Indian economic growth.

Has the West become just a group of countries that are dead men walking? Power, greed and arrogance without allegiance to any country, people, religion, culture or honor will always lead to doom. What did our “leaders” gain for their treason? I doubt any of them considered the consequences of their actions in terms of eternal salvation.
I will not speculate on the motives of evil men and women. I will remind people who do nothing to fight evil of their consequences:
What are the consequences of the West’s downfall? We may not all be impacted at the same level but we will suffer greatly for the sins against our Father. Pray for our people. Pray for Divine Providence to show us the pathway back to redemption.

I can’t wait for the collapse. I can taste it. Must load more magazines.
Eager to see your medically vulnerable neighbors suffer and die due to lack of a working power grid?
I could bore you with the facts that some 80+ percent of our nation will be dead within a year but why bother.
Yes, we ARE that dependent upon the power grid and 2nd and 3rd order knock on effects of a civil war.
Thus, my oft comment to protect your family and trusted friends. We don’t have the logistics to prevent a mass extinction event in America.
BTW the grid was irregular and often repaired in Bosnia, that along with massive international medical support prevented them from losing as much population as Ukraine has lost due to our little proxy war.
Who’s going to help the USA when things kick off?
