I'm not hater I try to look on things objectively. The USA will stand as ever, if there is no 3'rd world war or something, but you will have to cancel that fix idea of being the world police state, you never were though. That's quite a different story. Your peak was between 1990 to 2005, not much I woud say, not much...
No offense intended but the above type of post makes me role my eyes. "Not Much" really? And the "Peak" comment, come on, are you seriously stating that? The U.S. has been the dominating world force of the post WWII era, no other country comes even close.
Facts:
*The U.S. is still the dominating military force. Push comes to shove no military force on earth could withstand the full brunt of the U.S. military.
*The economic success or failures of the U.S. effect the rest of the world unlike any other countries.
*U.S. pop culture is by far the most influential and dominating in the world...this can be a good and bad thing, lol!
*The welfare of other nations greatly depends on U.S. material purchases more so than any other nation. The U.S. citizens stop buying and other nations feel the pain.
