USA- a crumbling empire.

[SmudgyRotter]

Not a day goes by that I can’t stop thinking how USA is falling apart like Rome, before my eyes. I see people waving foreigner flags in this country, and I ask myself: where is the good old American flag in the crowd, but just outlandish, outsider flags? Especially after what happened in Middle East. Why are they here? I wept gently, then I was angry a little :(

Ah yes, diversity is bad. Good logic. Anyways, lets let the foreigners in cause they're human beings too

An angry American ironically ignoring what created his/her country in the first place: Foreigners coming together to make a new nation. Ignoring your astounding ignorance as it's a disservice to your nation and its history.

America has had its ugly stain on history with African Slaves and later on African-American slaves until the end of the 1960's, it finally took a free and democratic nation 200 years to realise it was not acting in a manner of celebrating all that the country, its peoples and cultures had to bring in a free and fair way. Europeans created that ugly slave trade to the new world and it's unforgivable, but the Americans kept it going all that time after it was abolished elsewhere.

One day Americans will celebrate all their history, not just that taught to satisfy specific points of view and political points of view because it's very easy to do so.

I think you mean the 1860's not 1960's.

USA is seen as the Master Capitalist & champion of Democracy on a global scale. However as the wealth growth slows & financial deterioration seems to be sure & steady, the world sits back & wonders how Capitalism & Democracy is declining.

It seem that the USA is no longer a beacon of success or freedom, as the world seemingly sees a shift in the aspirations of other more successful nations.

Europeans didn’t invent slavery. There was even slavery in Egypt in ancient time? Hello? Don’t even get me started on what happened in Africa.
Yes, “foreigners”, the colonists did form this nation, but do make guess how many and what kind of percentages of ethnicity of those “colonists”? 13 colonies formed a coalition against the British, but not everyone actually fought the Revolutionary War. Oh, you didn’t even know that?…because there are people that still got homes and families to protect. The Indians never stopped to attack the colonies.
You here are complaining our history huh? but I’m sure that wherever that you come from, your history was really “clean” and “mighty” too, I’m sure…..NOT!
I’m also sure that your ancestors would care what you think today, when you got cars, electricity, clean, hot water, iPhones, etc…but they didn’t have any of this.
You, mister, just like the other guy, maybe you should take off whatever you wear, because you don’t deserve them.

Oh I forgot to add: the whole world was in slavery trade at the time, and I’m pretty sure if not because of so called “Europeans”, we wouldn’t break off the slavery trade. So do thank your hated “Europeans”. Just a thought.

It's a mess, but it's the most powerful nation for a good reason. Their government is the most ruthless and most potent entity there is on the entire planet. So cancel your idea of the USA falling apart, it's not gonna happen.

Don't worry about what you can see publicly, worry about what happens behind closed doors.

They claim that it was rightfully justice to use religion as a weapon where Rome coins was exchanged by a rumor that rome coins had less silver. Back then there were no computers that you couldn't and an impossible task to have evidence that the Rome coins had more or less than any other coins since if we took a sample of fake coins and claim them as status quo everyone will spread the rumors that all coins are fake.

They then took the rome coins in exchange they got a lamb to sacrifice and a new coin. They were sold out by a religion who printed their own coin and as well gave them food. It's why money and religion is close bond. The church was a bank. It distributed wealth and people deposit values in the churches.

The main reason why things can change quickly is because China has since the 80's asked for dollar and exchange sent goods to USA. Now China has a bigger war-treasure than USA that the chinese marine has 3 times as many ships. It may be the case that USA is respected because it's willing to start wars but it was only possible as long nobody retaliated. It's a cat and mouse game. The one with least conflicts is going to have a fat war- treasure to sit and wait and then take everything over once the dust settle. It is why the conflict between ukraine and Russia is as well able to take USA with it in the fall by depleting the war- treasure that China can buy everything since all want money and China sit on a lot of dollar.

Once wars are settled everything is cheap. When USA depleted their reserves people in Japan bought up land in USA and one bought the empire state building as a birthday present. Capital defeat is likely to occur than an army by the gate. And if so the opponent need to be weakened that there is no other outcome than victory. The reason behind the wars is because everything becomes cheap. In middle east there's oil, after the war the companies in the middle east are put on discount sale. There's only one winner. Why the second moon race? USA wealth is partially based on ownership of moon rocks. USA own more moon rocks than any other country. You can value gold by its rarity, even harder is to obtain what's in space.
