--- Quote from: cogsandspigots on January 17, 2012, 05:14:25 PM ---the US will not fall within next 150 years. It simply has:
1. A power-house of an economy.
2. The world's most powerful military. (by a long shot)
3. Complete control of the world's oceans
4. No powerful opponents. (China is in no place to oppose the US)

And, the population crisis isn't even a crisis at all.
The United States has a population density way below that of the worlds average and can support far more people than it already has.

...........no.  Spoiler (click to show/hide) Just because you spend the most on your military doesnt mean its the best in the world, china has the largest military in the world and some of the most cutting edge technology yet they spend less than an 8th of what we spend on are military, in fact the US's training standards are far lower then they where during ww2. The army's attrition rate was 22% during WW2, now its just 6% largely to accommodate the women and overweight people, infact the US military has the lowest PFT scores in the world, the USMC is the only exception. also are military hardware is about the same as it was at the end of the cold war.
but i find if funny that you say we dont have any powerful opposition, yet China and Russia have larger and more powerful armies then the US. hell china would even have to attack the US they could ruin us monetarily because they own 70% of are debt.  which is another thing, you talk about this powerhouse economy yet are economy is declining faster than the Chinese's is growing with nearly 10% of Americans unemployed. (i honestly think the percentage is higher). but think of it if the US and the Europeans economies tank, then china's economy would tank, because all the nations rely on each other and the fall of one would cause the fall of many. and if china's economy bit the dust, millions of people would starve, because china has to import alot of goods to sustain its large population.

@blah, no israel has a very small army, well equiped but small. as they have less then 400,000 soldiers keep in mind israel has a population smaller than london's. and 75% of the IDF is conscripts.

Scientifically, over-population will take care of it's self, according to Darwin's theory of evolution.

cogsandspigots:
Just stop Nemisous.

You aren't making any sense.

China DOES NOT own the US, not even a sizable portion.
China's growth is so artificially inflated from rock-bottom interest rates, if it stops growing. It gets ruined.
Also, food for thought:
Name any country that has a good enough navy to beat the uS in a single naval battle.


Now, back on-topic:
