russia did not collapse when they ran out of money. we wont either but russia and the USA will and are becoming disfunctional fast. no money honey.
WE shipped them all sorts of aid to help them out.... Nobody else could do that for us because they don't have the ablity, or hate us... even when we help them.
You clearly have no clue to what real Fascism is, if it was, you would have been dragged out of your house for anti government postings like that and shot... yet here you are...
I'm loading up on guns and ammo. Even if things don't collapse, I like to have them anyway. When seconds count, police are always minutes away. Not leaving my family's safety up to government and police, good times or bad. They are always to be considered the back up plan.
After 8 years of fascism, the majority of the American people want the union to stay strong. Those who dont typically are Bush supporters and were in favor of torture, unprovoked war, illegal spying and the revocation of Habeas Corpus.
All true Americans must readily identify this threat to the fabric of our society, and the republic as a whole, and remind ourselves that this pernicious threat is both viable and active across America and would enjoy the dissolution of 50 united states
One corrupt empire would collapse, and 50+ new nations would be born - competitive, unique, and free!
Um... The downside is, you more than likely won't be around to see it or most of your family and anyone you know.
I would assume that if one country fell, it would end in a flurry of Nuclear weapon exchanges from other countries trying to get the jump on one another. What is going to be left won't be much of anything recognizable for a couple of centuries.
If America experiences currency collapse, breakdown of government services, unending civil disruptions, and shortages of necessary goods and services, do you believe the whole thing could fall apart?
I believe that if the Republican Party continues to try to tear this nation apart--with their destructive and hostile representatives in Congress, vicious television and radio show hosts--then yes, I think the nation could fall apart. Bush and Cheney need to be in jail. Fixed News needs to be exposed--by the conservatives, not by the liberals--as the hate machine it is. And the Republican Party has got to empty itself of the conservative nutjobs like Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal. The underlying problem with the Republicans is that they have no integrity as a party. They appear to be incapable of self-criticism. The true conservatives need to step up to the plate and publicly--and relentlessly--denounce the lying scoundrels that currently hold their Party hostage, because the Republicans lose more credibility every day. They've become a kind of carnival of destruction. The whole world watched the Sarah Palin rallies and the thousands of ignorant, racist, hateful people who attended them. And they watched her ramp up that hatred with glee. It was nothing less than appalling and deeply embarrassing for civilized Americans. And that kind of rhetoric and behavior is now what represents the Republican Party. It's chilling, actually.
I predict that the states will begin to assert their independence as unfunded mandates are crammed down their throats from Washington. I think we will end up more a somewhat cooperative united states than a central Federal government dictating to the states. Regardless, we will have hard economic times and will never again see the level of prosperity we have recently had. We will become more like Britain with high taxes, high prices, and low wages. In other words, a lower standard of living. For example, A GM auto worker in China makes $2 a day. I think most of us are smart enough and pragmatic enough to understand what that means to an American auto worker.

Not enough options in the poll.
Yes, it could collapse. Socialism brought down the Soviet Union also, but the collapse of socialism isn't necessarily bad. Times could get very rough, society could break down. People who survive would have to get back to basics.

Yes, that's why it may be not only inevitable but the best thing that can happen. It's the talk of an overly powerful, indebted out-of-control federal government that would collapse. Power would go back to the states where it belongs. We lost our Constitution some time ago, this would be the only way to get it back or anything reasonable again.
Free individual states is the way it was intended to be. States like California with it's spending addiction would also collapse, while states like Texas could possibly survive, the more responsible states that balance their budgets would come out ahead.
