As it was in the schoolyard, so it will be globally. Eventually, the two big kids on the block go toe to toe to see who's top dog. China's navy and armed forces, in reaction to our global presence, have been growing steadily. As you can read in this article, the first testing ground is the South China Sea.
Sadly, some 10 to 15 years from now, the U.S. will launch on China. The reasons? Well, we're broke, and we'll be in worse shape then. And what better way to distract us from that drafty bridge we're living under or that overcrowded tent city than to attack the "bad guys."
The question is: Will you still be here in the the empire, or by then will you be safely tucked away off the grid?
Amazingly, Pax Americana is melting right before our eyes, just like Pax Romana.

I know i'm jumping ship as soon as school is over. Things keep getting worse and worse and i fear that the blank points on the grid are shrinking. We're broke, we are constantly at war, and there is only a shadow of the Republic left.
I know, it's pretty depressing. What could have been - a peaceful republic and the shining example of capitalism in the world. Gone.
