Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

I hear what you're saying, but why do you single out the U.S. for collapse? Aren't France, Germany, Britain, etc. also led by parties on the right? Hasn't there always been a swinging back and forth between the two sides? Why would it take a collapse of the U.S. to solve the problems of the world? Why not a collapse of Europe, say, because of her reliance on imported Middle Eastern oil? Or a collapse of China, say, because of her reliance on scarce educated labor?

"Something" will happen, that's for sure, but one of the possible somethings is a continuing of the muddling along that people have been doing for a centuries...
