America seems like a political machine and all, but look at other countries. America has THE lowest living standard in the world. I live in America and it may not seem like it... but we do, compared to the average of other countries. Americas economy is either going to be forced to convert *to things like meters and kilometers, celcius, date and time formatting, etc.* to the general world economy or it will fall. hard. America has the highest rate of illiteracy per capita and most teen pregnancies. We waste fossil fuels, we go to war without a second thought, we throw the lives of our future generations into the dust in third world countries. Right now, we might seem powerful, but the US is just on a "steroid hype" if you will... compare us to a person on a sugar rush or something. We get up there all high and mighty, just a child gets hyper, for a while.. then we come crashing back down to earth and we can not cooperate without aid of other countries.. now don't get me wrong. America is a great place to live in but its hard not to notice a certain sense of impending "collapse"
