    Alright, we all know the US economy is not good, but does anybody think the US will lose it's "superpower status" to China? If you ask me, I think we will, but I don't know the opinion of others. Anyway, what are your thoughts on the US economy and it's status as from how we are today till the future? Do you think China will overtake the US? Do you think the US economy will recover before 2012? 2013? Do you think we will go to war with any other countries in the near future? Do you think we will lose the wars we are in right now? I just wanted to know the thoughts on what others think.

    I think that if we allow Asia to continue to import cheap everything, nothings going to recover.

    China can't get in a war that is remotely against us. We will default on our debt and they will go bankrupt. lol

    we are outnumbered, but we have a stronger military. besides, both the US and China help each other in many ways, so both countries leaders would be against that, I can almost guarantee that the US and China will never be in a war with each other.

    Just sayin. I don't think we will go to war against each other. I hope not because they make our military hummers now. lol. But it is no joke that they will lose like $400 Billion if we default on our debt.
