[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't wait for my kids to go to college so I can move from this sinking country.  I swear that in another decade, this country will be in ruin.

Domestically, our politics are dividing us.  Economically, the wider the gap in income and national debt will give way to violence, crime, general chaos.  Government wise, our stuff is already messy with immigration and health care issues, we will only be more of a mess.  Foreign policy wise, I'm not as confident that we'll be number 1 or 2 even because we'll be so weak domestically.  Let's face it folks - if it wasn't that we were known as a "superpower" in the world, taken into consideration the strength of our country on a domestic level, we are definitely not even top 10 globally.  And the days of having 1 or 2 "superpowers" is not really how things are anymore.  Globalization is about partnerships and the world is more complex.[/quote]

And yet, the US and its allies are trying to maintain those partnerships, while Russia, China and others are fighting against them. [b]The US can still prevail, [/b]but unless or until we can figure out how government can "regulate" disinformation and how we can get money out of our politics, it will be a tough battle, but one worth fighting.[/quote]

Prevail at what? Russia China and Iran shouldn’t have become an Alliance in the first place. Russia shouldve been our friend. We pushed them to China by stupidly wanting to expand NATOs borders eastward and stating this In 2008. For what? Europeans don’t like to fight . Why did we have to expand NATO eastward? What for? It was only to provoke Russia. We didn’t like when Russians put soldiers in our backyard in Cuba so how did we ever expect expanding NATO and the EU would make them feel?

Our biggest threat is actually China not Russia and we pushed Russia to China by being stupid . China , a very smart country, must be glad at our foolishness. [/quote]

Yep, the Thucydides trap says we're going to have to fight China. So the question becomes, if you have an inevitable conflict with China ahead, do you want Russia on your side or theirs? [/quote]
