Is Americas time as a super power ending.?

Question

The problem with America is that we have become to soft. I think we are too politically correct, which has been hurting us as a power Nation. I think we need to do away with all of this liberial bull c**p and get back to the way we use to handle things. We need to flex our muscles and start taking over some countries and say s***w it to whoever does not like it. The only reason that these other countries are doing decent is because of the US. Lets face it.

Yeppers that policy really worked wonders for the USSR and ancient Rome.

"I wish that all nations may recover and retain their independence; that those which are overgrown may not advance beyond safe measures of power; that a salutary balance may be ever maintained among nations; and that our peace, commerce and friendship may be sought and cultivated by all." --Thomas Jefferson

Answer 3

we are going to a one world government and by 2010 there will be no USA it will be north American union with Canada and Mexico . everything happening to this country is plan by the neo-con all so known as builderburg group

Answer 4

My philosophy professor tells a story, its true but i forgot what island nation he was talking about. Well it is one of the greek city states. Not sure which one, but there is clearly an invasion coming. (no, this is not the spartan one, but also a good example.) Well the city states control the army. They decide what battles they should fight even in imminent danger. While they are still deciding and stone-walling, (no pun intended southernman.) The invading nation comes through and wipes out everyone leaving some for slaves. I think it is true, we are getting soft in political culture in america that wants to kiss everyone and make peace, when there are other nations and terrorist who would like to see us fall. Do i think our time is ending as a super power? Yes. The crucial key is that anytime in history when a superpowers people get sick of war and are comfortable appeasing and actually ok with losing ground, they are then seen as weak by those who wish to be on top like that superpower. Whoever has the will to be on top will win. We unfortunately have lost our will to be on top. The sad part is that all the suckers who say that we are bullies fail to realize that there can only be one. We should enjoy the comfort that we are the strongest. After all, we earned it.

Answer 5

Your proposal would end with us ceasing to exist as a country.

We need more liberal policies to cooperate more with foreign nations.  Like it or not, the US is not going to be the world's ONLY super power.  We will still be a super power, but will have to accept countries like China as our equals.  In the new global economy, friendly trade works better than imperialistic mercantilism.

Answer 8

You are correct except the part about "taking over some countries". The U.S. has never done that; even with countries we have defeated militarily. The communists do that.

I agree that fighting a PC war is wasting money, American lives and time.
