Surprised they weren’t feeling the pressure sooner

Weren't we all. The video breaks down how all their various counter measures are finally (a strong claim) running dry.

I have a feeling they’ll find a way to keep the war machine running though.

Of course pessimism is cooler than optimism, but if their economy really "finally" breaks down, surely the war machine will soon follow. You can run on fumes, hunger and actual slavery for so long only.

edit: not fumes, assuming they can keep their refineries running. Lack of spare parts maybe.
