The other night I read an interesting magazine article that pretty well relates the direction of our country has taken in the past few years...
The richest man in the world lives in Mexico- the tallest building in the world is in Taipai, and Dubai is building a taller one, with the second tallest being built in Dubai a year and a half later- the largest factory in the world is in China- the largest refinery is in India...Even Vegas is no longer tops- the largest casino hotel now is the Venetian in Macao- and Macao has overtaken Las Vegas with the largest gambling revenues in the world...The 2 largest shopping malls in the world are in China- with all the top 10 shopping malls in the world being outside the US...
Three years ago- the US would have been the tops in many of those categories...And what was the largest economy in the world- is now stagnated and in danger of imploding....
And while the US spends Trillions $ on bombs, troops, and foreign nation building which is raping our economy- and divides the nation, while alienating the population of the rest of the world with our colonialism and warmongering-- the rest of the world is building infrastructure and their economic future...
And history has shown that if a superpower relys solely on its military might, it will fall behind....You just need to look back to the British Empire and see that.....
