Phil Kerpen is the policy director of Americans for Prosperity, and in 2008, he wrote an article called "From Panic to Depression?" in which he says that "In a world of nuclear and biological weapons and non-state terrorist organizations that breed on poverty and despair, another global economic breakdown of such extended duration would risk armed conflicts on an even greater scale."
I want to recommend this article as a good way to get an impact for economic decline. It is from 2008, almost 2 decades newer than the commonly used MEAD 92. It takes into account new developtments in the world like the rise of extremism and the recent Global Recession. It has the same warrants as the MEAD 92 card, which is the fact that it is empiracly proven that economic collapse causes war. This was the case in World War II, which both authors site.
If you want to cut the card, go to http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/226120/panic-depression/phil-kerpen
