The epic failure of America is that it always separated (10 - 15 years no more, not much) America and the rest of the world. That's why it has epic failed so much! It resonates allover the world.
Hope this helps!
Now figure this shit out and have a nice day

If America is considered a failure then what does that make Russia? A catastrophe? Not only did the Russians destroy their empire trying to keep pace with us, they've now been relegated to 2nd class status with the likes of other former powers like France.
Government run by the Russian mob? Check.
Alcohol and heroin addiction driving their life expectancy down into third-world range? Check.
Obsolete military? Check.
Inability to control a bunch of Muslim psychopaths like the Chechens? Check.
Russia = failure.
