Just saw your article from 4 years ago……we’re fucked. Elites, who have lived in luxury for so long, are facing the possibility that they might be poor, would rather die than give it up. The saying “it’s much better to never have had money, than to have had it and lose it” is so true. My stepdaughter is testimony to that. Her dad made a ton of money and spoiled her, and today she’s a bitch because she doesn’t have it anymore. Now combine that with the wealthy having armies that can defend them, and we need to run for the border. The wealthy will do one of two things, 1) destroy the country before they lose their wealth, or 2) flee the country with their wealth. Either way, we’re fucked.

As the world economy is moving from West to East, there is solice that America will still have untap resources, advanced technology, and military might. The problem with the next global superpower China is that all business is under state control. This model will be followed my many countries. There are pro and con to this ideology, but this model will not be accepted in the USA.

Our knowledge to build great technologies will always be here. We will be a consumer driven nation, but we will also be an exporter of goods and services. Our healthcare is second to none. Everybody from all over the world wants to get treated here. If we are able to repeal Obamacare and fix Medicare, tort reform, immigration, and Social Security, we should be able to service everybody in America.

The problem we face is the politician who promises everything and delievers little. These politicians are puppets to the New World Order- the Banks. This country from the beginning was screw by the banks. It took a private citizen, JP Morgan, to bail out the USA. That led to the creation of the Federal Reserves. This is a cartel of banks that manipulate the dollar. They took the role of the Congress that it is printing money. It loans the money to the government, and in return, the government pays back in interest and principle. These banks is bankrupting this country. We need to lessen the role of the Federal Reserves and give the role back to the Treasury. Congress is the only entity that can print money. That is written in the Constitution.

Finally, this country is not finished. As one of your commenter said, “America is finished when people stop believing in themselves and that democracy is a government controlled by the people.” We will be sharing a globalized power with other countries (China, India, Russia). We will be the gatekeepers for peace as we help friends in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Israel) and Asia (Japan, Taiwan). It may be a good thing afterall. Sharing the burden of power with other countries. These countries cannot deny us or ignore us. They need us as much we need them. We are a consumer driven nation and these countries need us to buy their goods. So, the outlook for America will be modified. The dollar will be the reserve currency. English will be the international language for business. We will not even notice this major transformation. Many wont feel the effects. It is like we are outsourcing some of our responsiblities to other nations.
