it is predicted the the US economy is going to collapse within 30 years

Every Great Empire has its last day

it also seems the at this day comes after a war which sends the country into huge government debt and current account deficits

like with the egyptians, romans, the moghals, the british and the russians

if im not mistaken

the US is in a war

the US is having some of its largest budget deficits in history and its current account deficit is insanely large

maybe the end is near?

so be patriotic

stop buying that exotic imported car
and bring your troops

and maybe you will still have a country to defend soo viciously

Well, what do y'all think? I, of course, already have an opinion which I'll be happy to share when I have less work and am not so lazy.

If the war was too taxing on America, we'd be out of Iraq already.

Take the Roman Empire for instance, they didn't collapse within a day because they overextended themselves. Slowly they began pulling back their lines and consolidated what they could control. That is why remnants of the empire lasted until the 1400s.

I wouldn't be so haughty to believe that America is going to break itself conquering a country no larger than Arkansas.

it would take some type of major nuclear war or land invasion, and even then it would still be extremely difficult to take america down

Hmmmm Nuclear war you say.... Well if there was a nuclear war taking over America would not really matter now would it, no one really wants to take over a piece of land covered in Radioactive fallout. just sayin.

Hahah, speaking of nuclear war, today in debate this guy who does policy debate was talking to our teacher about their resolution. It had something to do with nuclear war, and he was saying that in negating it we should just have a nuclear war now becuase there isnt enough nukes to destroy the entire planet, but in the future if we do have one everyone will be dead. It was a really assbackwards argument, but it made sense in theory. All i kept thinking the whole time "...if 35000 nukes were launched, and if some people lived, how would the radiation be cleaned up...". It was a really funny argument
