The one with the money.
2 comments

Money is a variable but to list it alone feels a tad glib. Factors like ideology, corruption, political altruism, perceived and actual opportunity within nation, social justice etc are all extremely significant and can outweigh money when they are obviously unbalanced from expectations.
More specifically, the reserve currency.
The culture with the reserve currency has lost its mojo and is confused about its values. It that continues there's no way it's going to win.
