They can't destroy a toothpick with a flamthrower, nevertheless your economy. You economy is shit and you're still the most power nation in the world. You trillions of dollars in debt and you're still the most powerful nation in the world. What is China going to do? It's an ice cube's chance in hell, for a country like China to stand up against a country like America, what the fuck?
2 billion vs 300 million. . . It would be catastrophic for both sides.Much more catastrophic than the Iraq war. Then Russia would capitalize and that would be that.All that bloodshed for naught. It's like poker on a massive scale.
Yeah, 2 billion running on you would kill you, but when it's head to head, they wouldn't even dare go against each other with both their nuclear capabilities. Read more man, read more.
China owns us its a fact. We depend on them for economic support, they could destroy us with a trade embargo.
They don't need that to destroy us, they have sterilized $2 trillion US dollars and are holding them, just sitting on them. All they need to do is throw that liquidity back into the market and the world will tank. They are warning us now they are growing tired of it too.

Yeah lets hope everyone has their head screwed on right with respect to that topic. The world would be ruined. Of course now we have Neutron bombs and radiation is not as much of factor (the military is always looking for better ways to whack more people), imagine what we could all be enjoying of the world spent more time working with each other.
always the bottom issue is that countries think is them against the world... some on in this thread said "leave the americans alone"... come on!!! you are NOT alone and you don't leave the rest of the world alone... i belive that US, china russia and all those "powerfull" nations never learn... just take a look to latin america... our countries are getting closer and we are trying to join politics to face the crisis... if only the world would do the same... i know i'm idealistic, but we really need a change of mind!!

I'd probably be playing some Diablo with you, nailing your ass in PvP.

Anywhere I look, that is mostly true. Anywhere where there is patriotism, thers is "my country is better than yours" and there is "we vs you". Show me a country without patriotism. There is no such thing.

One thing that outsiders always miss is the fact that America's influence on other countries is conducted by .00001% of the population (mostly the president and a bunch of military idiots), but the attack always goes to the American citizens. That pissses the hell out of me. I'm not responsible for what Bush does, nor is my Calculus teacher, nor is some guy in Minnesota trying to get an education. WE are Americans. Not Bush and the rest of those who keep waging wars and trying to put US on a pedestral as the big powerful nation.
We are alone. Because our own country cares about foreign affairs more than about us, they feed African children and give them vaccines before they do it for us; and because everyone else thinks we're too big and prosperous to be given help. While, in reality, America is doing much worse than Canada.

That will not happen until you eliminate patriotistic approach, where a nationality, or a religion, or language, or any other denomination is valued more than the fact that you're human. That will not happen until you destroy the competition conveyor, where one human is against another regarding who gets the job/college/scholarship or some other rubbish, where people hate each other because of their football team. Our whole society is based on competition. What cooperation can tehre possibly be.
Your Latin countries are approaching America. Everyone is approaching America, and America is trying to jump the gap. But you can't just skip what America has done (the conveyor, the extreme capitalism) and go straight to the more advanced level of existence, I'm afraid. It seems only to be getting worse everywhere.
I'll take that as a compliment, honestly is sometimes sucks to see my face get older and my hairline recede. 25 to 30 were good loved those years. One day I was that smart ass kid the next I became sir.
I refuse to grow up and I am incorrigible, a few weeks back I was shopping at the grocery store with my boy and my wife wanted some Jolly Time Blast-O-Butter microwave pop-corn. I procured the required amounts she asked for but I happened to have a black Marks-a-lot permanent marker with me.
Well I couldn’t resist, I did this to the box and put it back on the shelf.
My 11 year old loved it, if only I had a camera to see the expression on the shoppers face that happened upon that box.
One of the nice things about getting older is you tend to make more money and can go to nicer restaurants and fling the bread to offend old starchy rich people who lost their sense of humor a hundred years ago. Great fun, dress like a degenerate slob and go make a scene.
You remind me quite a lot about my dad, who's like my (and my friend's) bestfriend. He's a fan favorite, actually..and quite hilarious as well. That kind of spontaneous humor is quite funny. He'd stop by random girl's when we're in the car, and go like "yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh..my son's right here..LOOOOL" but in Arabic, of course. Nothing too vulgar, it's just way too hilarious at times. You catch my drift. If I ever happen to find myself in Vegas, I'll sure give you a ring

That pissses the hell out of me. I'm not responsible for what Bush does
you're wrong... what bush does is also you're responability because u voted him (or not... is the same for that matter) that is one of the axioms of democracy... that 0.00001% represent you and that's why u have to vote...to get a good representation...

Right you are, but I swear I'm not going to get started or this will be a long ass post. I voted for Gore in 2000 but not because of parties, I've voted in the past for both parties depending on who I thought would make the better leader, lesser of two evils, or could get one thing done well.
Bush scared me out of the gate, mostly because his father wasn't the brightest bulb either and a liar, that and he like mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed shit over the gulf war, telling the American people it wasn't about the oil, that was crap and the American people knew it, at the end of the war the ass munch admitted it over oil when asked he literally said "well of course it was over oil" and continued to explain how it was necessary to keep the western world running.
[Excuse me I must go swear now and throw shit around my house] :mad:
If the bastard had just been honest, the military long knew (I learned of this in 1982) the next war would be over oil, and the one after that would be over fresh water. Mr. "read my lips, no new taxes" what an ass. Of course Clinton did nothing about the Rwanda Genocide in 1994 a million slaughtered.
[Excuse me I must go swear now and throw shit around my house]:mad:
Bush Jr. Won on the platform he was going to pay down the national debt and do something about the obligations, and everything he said he wouldn't do on foreign policy he did. Like father like son, lying POS. I won't rehash all the pisses me off about Bush, I'll write book here if I do. But I ask how can you be a politician and NOT know what the word sovereignty means? Well I'll CroMagnoBush explain in this YouTube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=B5xVRXLgLxw
What really pisses me off are all the idiots that voted for Bush on principle and ideology, they allowed a fricken moron into the office for 8 years. Stupid f'ing son of...
[Excuse me I must go swear now and throw shit around my house]:mad:
As you can see I really don't care for either party, murderface is also right about the electoral carnage er I mean college
you're wrong... what bush does is also you're responability because u voted him (or not... is the same for that matter) that is one of the axioms of democracy... that 0.00001% represent you and that's why u have to vote...to get a good representation...
Perhaps you did not know. . . In America we don't have this thing you call "votes" or "Democracy", we have an electoral college that decides who the president will be.
you're wrong... what bush does is also you're responability because u voted him
Even if I voted for him, what another person does is not, at all, ever, in any way, no matter what the hell happens, become my responsibility.
I cannot be responsible for another human just because I vote for him. Nobody can be fully responsible for another human, in fact, unless they follow him around and tie him on a leash, which is not at all what human nature would accept.
I did not vote for him, or anyone, in the 2 elections, because a) I was not a citizen I wasn't in this country.
Quote from "Nacho_ijp" »

Bullshit. Parents can't be held responsible for their kids forever, nor can the police be responsible for 100% of crimes, nor are people responsible for their politics, because not each individual person is counted, only the masses are counted, and if you just don't happen to be inside that mass, well, you're fucked, and you're opinion doesn't matter. At all. It's 0. Welcome to democracy.
Quote from "Nacho_ijp" »
... that 0.00001% represent you and that's why u have to vote...to get a good representation...
Voting does not get a good representation. Voting is a way to legalize the president chosen by the democractic/republican commitee... which I did not decide on nor a part of.
Half of the voters are on the left of the IQ Normal Distribution. They may have their good sides, but they're very, very easily influenced by the media, oratorship, sweet talk, and other rubbish. THAT defines who wins. That, + special circumstances, such as bad economy. Every time there is a bad economy, the party changes. What kind of representation can there possibly be? Give me a break.
Why are all people who were presidents LAWYERS? What are lawyers? Losers. People that can only talk and can't get anything done. People with no dignity. People always ready to lie. Why does everything in the government is so slow and corrupt and idiotic? Because who you are doesn't matter, all that matters is how you talk, and that's why lawyers are always the presidents, because they specialize in talking. The fact that they're incompetent - who cares...
The time when we get a scientist as our president is when this nation truly changes...
I'm not responsible for this nation's president, because if it was my choice, I would pick someone totally different who's name is unknown and who is my personal aquiantaince, because there is this one thing about humans: you can't trust no one.
