Well, what can one say? It looks that if the U.S. doesn't change it system that it's going down the tubes. And that shitty system is too far evolved for many people to want to change it.
How can a country keep a thousand foreign bases around the world and not go under; they're not money makers. The only way would be to tax the rest of the world to support those bases and the military overhead of the U.S. And considering the low popularity of the U.S. that's not likely to happen. Everyone is starting to say "U.S. go home" but Uncle Sam is not listening.
All my income comes from the U.S., social security and other investments which cannot be brought over here. Any assets that I could bring here, are here. I also have two grown children in America. so I'm greatly affected by all this.
But, what's to say? Close 90% of all military basis and take care of the people? That would get a good laugh.

I told Bush; don't play chess with the freakin' Russians.
