Oh how the mighty have fallen. The US and Europe are in big time trouble economically and probably won't recover for several decades. People need to accept the fact that we're economically doomed for the next 20-30 years because of all of the complete lunacy policy makers have implemented over the past 20 to 30 years. Couple that with the fact that birth rates in 1st world western countries are declining while birth rates of individuals with Muslim or Asian background continue to be healthy and also with the fact that China will become the #1 global superpower, it may be time to put the nail in the coffin of Western culture. We're being dominated economically, proportionally, and politically.

Don't kid yourself, China is currently repositioning its economy to be based more on domestic consumption rather than relying mostly on exports to drive its economy. Couple that with the red hot production levels in manufacturing driving the Chinese economy, and you have the world's next super power. China won't need the US or the west anymore soon, and when they no longer do, they'll dump the trillions in US assets they own in order to economically devastate the US.

Walked down the Champs Elysees recently? I bet not, because if you did, you know it now feels like you were walking around in Saudi Arabia. Muslims in Europe have way higher birth rates than their European counterparts and are definitely gaining political clout in Europe due to their increasing population levels. It's western demise. I'm not saying western demise is bad at all, it's just the way it is going to be. Europe brought this upon themselves when they started importing cheap labor in the 70s and also because of colonization and must deal with the consequences.

Western civilization won a long time ago. Don't let something so superficial as skin color make you believe otherwise.

I debate such topics with a lot of people I run into, and I'm surprised that I've never met anybody that shares your views. I can't believe how blind people are. Good job on stating the obvious! Cheers!
