Have we run out of bubbles, or will we find something new?

Well, we can honestly say it's not going to be anything we manufacture and export... because we don't manufacture anything.

Its  good question...food/alt fuel tech/ we also have the best military in the world. Neither party will stop deploying it for either Bush doctrine missions or at the behest of the UN. We don't make anything so unless we revert back to industrial manufactoring, I'm not sure how we plan to get back on top.

Ouch! That bubble inflated with the stock market & sub prime markets, ...and is bursting right along with them.
