Name one example that supports your claim.

I hear this a lot from underage fags. From what I've seen Americas influence in the world has gone up since the fall of the soviet union.

American culture is consumed more than ever, we are bombing countries virtually unopposed, our terrorism laws are giving us unprecedented access to other nations, Europe seems to be completely on board with whatever the fuck we do and even if they aren't they do nothing to stop us.

China shows no interest in doing anything to stop us either. They only care about themselves and the 1+ billion people they have living in abject poverty.

Also, I work in the high tech field, chemical engineering, and in the last 15 years America has cemented and dominated Europe in almost everything high tech. Especially IT. Silicon Valley is doing great.

So I don't know wtf you are talking about. I understand that as a foreigner you want to see America faulter, but this argument that America is about to disappear doesn't match reality. The US is projected to have the second highest GDP and highest GDP PPP in 2050.

Population growth in America is healthy, immigrants are coming in high numbers, we have more arable land than China with a far smaller population, lower population density than most of Europe, our relationship with Canada is fantastic.

I don't see the problem. Is it our debt? Our public debt as a percentage of GDP is comperable if not lower than most of Europe and certainly Japan.

Explain to me how Americas influence is declining? The way I see it we will continue to be a super power for the rest of your life. I know it must suck for you, but you have to learn to deal with it.

I feel being part of that. The western world (europe + north america) are mostly identical, only with different culture.
Because of the web and globalisation it feels like we are one big country.

i was about to post a list of things invented by europeans(nearly everything) and then discredit that list since americans did not actualy invent half of those things.... but then i realised this is a troll thread

You have no idea how deep in shit you are. China and Canada already jointly own over half of your country (that's not figurative; your balance of debt literally allows them to own over 50% of your land mass). China will probably get the rest when you collapse under your debt load.

Deal with it.

also, even if america did invent all that stuff (wich they didnt) how does that benefit you?

The book lists how the Founding Fathers of the United States used 28 fundamental beliefs to create a society based on morality, faith, and ethics,[3] which Skousen asserts resulted in more progress having been achieved in the last 200 years than in the previous 5,000 years of every other civilization combined.

Your social insurance liability on the baby boomer generation turns over in what... ten years tops? Most of your fuel comes from Canada as well (you'd think the middle east, but that's only because they're ornery over there so they're always in the media).

No fuel and no funding for a military... Yeah, I don't see you being able to say no.

>>1851624
Well the biggest problem for someone like you (I would guess you're a slightly geeky guy that has some college education since you're on /sci/) is that if the country went into a civil war, most likely there would be mass starvations as trucks that bring supplies to supermarkets get disrupted. You'll be confronted with IRL stormfags with more guns and ammo in their basement than fucking Pakistan, who I doubt will think 'Oh no I better not kill this innocent person' and are more likely to think 'LIBERAL HEATHEN SCUM I'M BETTER THAN HIM I'LL STEAL HIS SHIT'

Also, internet and electricity will get disrupted and maybe even taken offline for a long time. It's a civil war; do you really expect people to continue working their 9 - 5 jobs risking their lives trying to fix a blown up junction box? No.

I'm saying this as a friend to you Americans: Get out. Even if you don't believe me, the first second you see shit hitting the fan, haul ass out of there It's gonna get ugly there.

Baby boomers have already retired. We haven't died yet, have we?

And Canada's oil does NOT go directly to any country. ALL oil that is tapped goes to the national oil reserve, from which countries will then buy it. That's how it works, and the fact that I even had to explain that to you suggests to me that you actually really have no idea what you're talking about. There must be some kind of European Glenn Beck who is filling vulnerable Eurofags with propaganda.
