The US becoming a 3rd World Country?, ...someone pointed this out.. Options

[EmeraldKnight]

Oh get over yourself....the U.S. is gonna become a third world country anyway if it keeps up the way it is now...with the economy I mean. It wouldn't make a difference if it's overpopulated and what not.

Yes....we are a very strong country, but I'm looking at this from a scientific standpoint, not a political one. I know this is beside the point and I don't know why I brought it up, but all I'm gonna say about this is....there is a possibility that the U.S. can become a third world country simply from the fact that the ozone layer is depleting. I know you're thinking well what does that have to do with anything.....well it has lots to do. I'm closing this subject since it's irrelevant. Btw....Japan is pretty far up there in the superpower matter.

Yes....scientific standpoint. Yes...I do know what I'm talking about. Yes... I do know that it does affect everyone, not just the U.S., the U.S is getting left behind. Yes....the ozone layer. Take for example the car. It runs on gas....but they are now coming up with hybrids. Still, it isn't quite enough. In order to protect the ozone layer fully, they must come up with a car that doesn't run on gas and in order to save money they must come up with something that isn't a hybrid. The simplest chemical reaction is there, but they just aren't using it. It is as simple as H20 and hydrogen gas. Honestly, all natural sources can work to energize a motor. I've seen it. Please....consider all possibilities also before saying stuff like I don't know what I'm talking about. 

Hmm...why is everyone so hung up on double posting? Anyway...there are other factors that may lead up to the U.S. become 3rd world, for example, if Bush was kept as president. Obviously, I'm not going to win this arguement since everyone is being closed minded about the whole deal. But whatever....it's a debate, I suppose.

All great civilizations or empires fall eventually....example: Egypt, Rome, Greece....you get the picture. The U.S. will be one of those eventually also.

Those arent my arguments.. they're someone else's taken from the Illegal Immigrants thread; I just decided to create a separate topic for them..

well, eventually, every empire falls...it's just a matter of when....and i'm still not really understanding the whole 3rd world thing...
