I've likened the US to the fall of Rome for years.. the bread and games culture.. the last ditch attempts at expansion.
Empires come, empires go, I think the US empire is on the wane. It may take another century to totally erode, but I do believe they've had their hayday. It's now someone else's turn.
My bet is on the chinese rising again.

The Americans live in a Superpower daydream. The Chinese already own the US economy and could put America into an economic depression with the stroke of a pen. They are using American greed as a weapon and the Americans are getting blindsided. In a war of attrition, the US loses. That is just the facts jack.
