America will not be a World Power forever.I personally think eventually China will be the World Power after the US.No one can say when it will end |

At the rate we are going...
MAYBE 25 years.
You CAN NOT put the consideration of all other countries in the world ahead of you and think that for just one second that you will be ok.
REPEAL FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I seriously doubt it is going to end any time soon. Other countries have been around for thousands of years and America is only a few hundred years old. Our countries life is just starting out. |

I doubt it will. Most civilizations haven't had the benefits we have of adaptability, access to free speech, equality, free expression as basic household values.
There is no reason to believe it will. We get claims every election year! It's going to end! It never does.
It's silly. |

The US perished following the rupture of the Kamalesh Gate in 2414. This should not come as a surprise, since so did the rest of the surrounding Galaxy.
Things are tough all over. |

The other great empires fell because of all of the people coming in and asking to be suppported, look it up. If we don't get rid of illegals, we'll be next! But I feel strongly that we'll overcome this invasion! Only those who refuse to learn history are doomed to repeat it! |

Depends if it's man made or by an outside force.
I think US is going to be here for quite a while. Enough that our great-g-g-g-g-g-g-g children will walk this continent.
Now whether or not we're still a superpower in the world of countries is still to be decided... |

Only as long as the second amendment to the constitution does. That's what really sets us apart from other cultures. It's the real power to the people. |

American civilization is not a few hundred years old, but many thousands of years old as America is formed from the British empire, the largest empire in history. It doesn't matter that the US doesn't look to the 'mother country' but celibrates the end of its grip.
The dictionary defines civilization as a society in an advanced state of social development (e.g., with complex legal and political and religious organizations);
All of these are based on the British.
The English language you are blessed with, is probabily the most powerful language that has ever existed, with at least 300,000 words of which 30,000 would be considered a fair vocabulary. Most people can read a newspaper (about 16,000 different words by age 8). Consider a Chinese person - they have a very difficult language, and cannot match this with the same information bandwidth in thier own language even after years of symbol study. (no symbols for complex abstractions like vortex, paradox etc...)
Legal System : You have a system of law which is based on English law, courts, procedures, etc.. Private property, Right to trial by peers, a citizen protected from the state's whim etc... Not European law where the state is above the citizen.
There is no private property law in China.
Religion: You are not under the thumb of catholic corruption, or any other religion because of the English. You do not have traditions like many parts of the world, of marrying your own family members, keeping genetic misfortune from striking your family, as it does for 1 in 12 for followers of non-christian religions
The only real threat to America is inflation, consuming without producing and getting in hock. Any country which sets on this path to avoid tough medicine rots even if blessed by natural resources (Argentina, Brazil, Russia etc...)
If inflation, then 10-15 years before America's citizens would lose thier freedoms from the state and corrupt in power over them with the printing press.
There is another saying - demographics is destiny. Without lower housing costs through the tax system being rebalanced back to families, demographics look bad (for non immigrants). |

It doesn't really matter how long any nation lasts, hopefully we can all grow up a bit and live as one nation and one people. Heh maybe the US will be immortal and all other nations will be absorbed into it. |

THANK YOU! Finally a smart person who relized America will not last forever.
I believe within the next 100 years America will fall and lose its mass power we have. I believe it will be because of illegal immigration and the fast falling eduacation system |

Not as long as we think.
It will be from a combination of:
Environmental problems
Corruption
Costs of Maintaining Empire
The mighty republic of Rome fell once it became an empire and riddled with corruption. There is unfortunately nothing to stop us from sharing that fate. |

Egypt 10,000 years or so. Even religion ends. Why not countries too? |

Very soon, if it does not mend it`s way. Asn an fyi, US is not a civilization, get your head straight, you would call the Greek, romans, Chinese, Indian and Egyptians as a civilization.; The word civilization comes from civilized and apparently Americans or the US govt is far from being civil or civilized with each other or with foreigners.
Racist country !!! |
