Where will we be? America is at the brink of collapse. I hate to be such a pessimistic and such an I-Told-You-So person, but it's true. The weakening U.S. Dollar, the declining economy, and the fading faith in America are contributing factors in the fall of this country from Super Powerdom. And where will we be? Recently, in Davos, Switzerland, the World Economic Forum had a meeting. The main issue? "What can America do to recover, and what's out back-up if America falls?" You see, the world is a business. Super Powers are the main money-maker for the world economy. Up until recent times, America has never been questioned in its place as the Super Power. And I'll be the first to say that America was a Super Power. The issue is... America was a Super Power. The bad decisions that have been made in recent years have caused the world's faith in America to drop. Little by little, America increased its world-wide debt. When I said that Super Powers are money-makers, here is my explanation. When you're a Super Power, that means you have all the resources to back up any money you "borrow" from the world. America no longer has the resources. It's a little funny, Japan "owns" a lot of America now. Because America uses its trade as collateral for borrowing money. Why are American-made businesses failing, while Japanese-made businesses proper? That's why. The elections hold some hopes for the WEF, they hope that someone can pull America out of the void and bring it back as a Super Power. But if America can't rise, do you think the WEF are willing to restore it? No. They're looking at China for its growing Industrial and Manufacturing power; India, for the sheer man-power, and; Russia, because Russia holds the rights to the largest resource deposits than any other country. If America falls, we'll see the rise of another Super Power. My bet is on China. China has the combination of resources, man-power and brain-power. (Engineers in China, for example, outnumber US Engineers by a 3-to-1 ratio.) America can't fend for itself anymore. They tell us not to worry, but there is, in fact, a very big thing to worry about. American businesses are outsourcing most manufacturing jobs to other countries because they don't have to pay as much, leaving the Average Joe with his hands in his pockets. What do they say? With Manufacturing being outsourced or automated, it opens more jobs in a "Robot Aide" sort of position. The problem? It pays less than the Manufacturing jobs that got outsourced, and will be replaced by automation again. I once told Mors, that there are three types of leaders, each leading a country or empire if you would, into the three different stages of "being". The first is the Creator Leader, he creates empires; second is the Maintenance Leader, he maintains and expands empires; last is the Destroyer Leader, he destroys (his own) empire... accidentally or on purpose... which then leaves room for the cycle to start over. Empires have shorter and shorter life spans. To be brief, you had the Egyptians at tens of thousands of years; the Romans with thousands; the Russian with hundreds; and you have America... with barely even two hundred. It's already at the brink of collapse. So I ask again--when America collapses, where will we be?
