    Not after the US dollar loses its status as the World Reserve Currency. You can thank Obama and his Keynesian Economic policies for that one. The same policies that lost it for Great Britain in the early 1900's...the same policies that lost it for France in the 1800's...the same policies that lost it for the Netherlands in the 1700's...the same policies that lost it for Spain in the 1600's...the same policies that lost it for Portugal in the 1500's.

    Keynesian Economics and Socialism always fails.

    When was the last time you thought of the Dutch as a Super Power? In fact, it was former President John Adams (before becoming President) who went to the Dutch to help the US become a country free from Great Britain.

    And liberals want to elect Bernie Sanders to the Presidency...a guy who just loves the Netherlands political policies. Isn't that just great?

    If he gets elected, you can kiss it all goodbye in a matter of a few years.

    Probably not ... we spend more on weapons than we do on educating our next generation ... we have neglected the importance of education for too long, a country with a well educated clever populace will be the next super power ... in this regard China and India are marching forward ... !

    Every empire that ever existed on earth, has fallen at some point.

    I don't believe we will be any different.

    and if you need any further proof.......sit down and try to figure out how much 18 TRILLION dollars, actually is.

    Because that's how much we're in DEBT. .....with ZERO ways, and chances of ever paying that off.

    I assure you..........our end will come......and it will be ugly.

    Nope, it's already going downhill because it cannot thrive without an informed citizenry.
