George Friedman – Patterns have predicted our current cultural and political strife - a podcast by EnerCom Inc. | Oil and Gas 360

There is no question the United States is at a political and social intersection of strife and conflict. George took 5 years to write this book explaining the two different types of patterns. He also predicted that the 2020's would be difficult because this is the first time the two patterns are occurring within the same time.

His theories, and forward looking talking points, are spot on. I liked the book's evolution of our country’s history, and the hopeful turn in the future. He is not afraid to talk about the current social issues, and give his personal insights.
