The Decline of the USA

 I was born in the United States of America in the state of North Carolina and will die with pride that I was a citizen of this once great country.

Despite many FLAWS like slavery, the USA is the greatest country in the world to live because of our US Constitution and our Bill of Rights that no other country in the world has.

In addition, the USA has the strongest economy, the strongest military, the best education, many freedoms, natural resources, and the best career opportunities than any other country in the world.

AT LEAST WE USED TO BE THAT WAY...  UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE NO LONGER IN THAT POSITION...

Not only did COVID hurt our economy but a premature transition to green energy is causing it to grow at an unusually low rate, while other countries like China and India are rapidly growing their economies as well as their populations.

In addition to our lackluster economy, our educational system has been slowly declining over 3 decades and is no longer ranked as the number one education in the world.

Our military is in need of upgrading its airplanes, naval ships, and military weapons but the current administration has no desire to do that. Recruitment into the military has been gradually declining as well so our military is shrinking in numbers.

There is a huge wealth gap in the USA that is getting worse each year and if labor receives wage increases to try and compensate, it will only worsen inflation, forcing companies to manufacture overseas where there are lower wages.  This is the price we have to pay for having a great society.

Perhaps the greatest danger to our survival in the global marketplace is our national debt which seems to be steadily rising forcing us to pay more interest just to service the debt but not enough to reduce it.  That will one day soon bite us in the ass by kicking us off the top of the global economy.

NOW...  we have a new frontier that is about to raise it head in 2027 which is humanoid robots taking away most of our jobs.  Predictions say this will not happen until after 2035, but now they are saying it will start in 2027 or earlier.

The jobs that humanoid robots take will place a huge burden on this country to find replacement employment, especially now that 10 million illegal immigrants have entered the USA, primarily to find work that is not available in their countries.

The United States of America is like a iceberg in the global economy and when more and more people come to that iceberg to have a better life, the iceberg is not large enough to support the extra weight so it begins to sink.

OUR SUCCESS IS CAUSING OUR FAILURE AND DOWNFALL...  JUST LIKE ALL OTHER GREAT EMPIRES HAVE EVENTUALLY FALLEN OR COLLAPSED...

WILL THE REST OF THE WORLD COME TO OUR RESCUE JUST LIKE WE CAME TO THEIR RESCUE WHEN THEY ASKED US TO???
