There's that American ego..the world will be fine without the stupid fiat illusion that America is strong and in control.

America created and mastered this game of rising above others by putting them down. This does work between countries or people.

The American debt that never gets paid will probably be paid in pain by its citizens because the government wants more control not less. The government can't print its way out of this and have no more tricks to control it.

Control is not freedom. #bitcoin is freedom and the fact America won't back tells the world a lot.

The rest of the world has not necessarily grown a pair of balls, America just woke up not knowing what gender it is for the day.

I believe America is in for hard times which is natural when your society has gotten so soft.

I believe we will see the world do better without America (or any country) ruling over all...only time will tell...

Unless you're a nation with unparalleled access to the Pacific and Atlantic, good luck being in control of anything. America is a geography before it's a nation. Politics, power projection, control of money - all derivatives of that fact. If you can make space cheaper than the ocean to trade & police, then maybe you have a chance. IMHO

Interesting you say that. Was just told, not confirmed, Mexico is back planning it's Pacific- Atlantic land bridge that's been discussed for years.

People having those kinds of conversations tend to fall out of airplanes.
