Do you think its possible to break the U.S. to the point another country or ideology takes over and becomes a new world superpower?

Could this be the goal of a country like... Lets say Saudi Arabia? The only way to really break us is through our economy and the only way to attack our economy is through terror type attacks, but do you think we are strong enough to not be broken?

All big countries/empires fall at some point. Though it wont be someday soon, one day the US will be no more.

Empires and cultures have a finite life cycle. I don't know when this one will end, but it won't exist in perpetuity. If you think otherwise, I don't know what to tell you.

Morally, ethically, and financially it has already happened.

Well with socialism being pushed by the press and politicians I don't find it far fetched but more of us moving towards another system. Worse case I see is this country being Balkanized.

Men can go into womens bathrooms... burger flippers want $15 an hour... we've attacked peaceful religions in favor of one that throws gays off of buildings... we're about to elect a treasonous individual to be presidency because the other side could only present a fake libertarian and idk what to call trump...


I'd say we're broken.

It's broken now.

All part of Obama's plan.

We are in the process of breaking ourselves from within.

US has been evolving since before it began. It will continue to morph.

Sure, anything is possible. However, it's not very likely at present (despite all the chicken little MAGA bullshite from the pussies round here.) This point in time - right her right now - is the most dominant the US has ever been vs the world.

If you look at where this country started ideologically vis a vis where it is now, one could say that

another country or ideology takes over


or at the very least, that we are in transition

Please. China is on its heels and going nowhere fast. Time to move on from this fantasy of the "Chinese Millennium" that's been pushed on us for the past 20 years.

I could see the United States dividing into smaller countries at some point. Not any time soon.

I mean of course. Or do you think we will invade heaven, post the flag, and cycle through presidents every 4-8 years for the rest of eternity?
