actually, I don't think it'll ever recover .....
we are seeing the beginning of the end of an era I think
....
the US won't fade away into a third world shit hole .... maybe
....
but it certainly won't be number one much longer .....
it's unfortunate ... cos I think this brave new world would be a
much tougher one for small states like us than the one with uncle
sam at the head ....
The United States isn't going to go kaput..... but I'm guessing
that we're going to see a major shift of power away from it within
our lifetime.
It's just like how the status of superpower shifted away from
the British in the aftermath of WWII. The British Empire
technically still exists, but it is now a pale shadow of its former
glory.
