The Next Super Power!

Of course youngsters are stupid, they think they can change the world only by protest. What percentage of young adults vote again?

Please tell me if you’re just joking. Insults to youngsters should not be generalized, it derides my intelligence because there are (hard to believe as it is) intelligent youths. and I would vote if i could, boy in this last CA election I was dying to vote. ah, so close and yet so far. :x

anyhow, a lot of these countries not only stopped expanding, they ignored internal problems. the USA will fall if it keeps trying to help out the unfortunate people in other countries while not changing anything within itself. i agree that at some point the US will fall, but not in the typical sense that a completely different, new country is instated. right now, people are pushing for a “global community”, which is, IMO, nothing but crap. the UN is nothing but a vehicle for that to come in on. but that’s another topic so i won’t go there. the US will be made a part of “one big happy family” :roll: that’s how we’ll fall. i hope i’m not here for it.

I’m not. I have a word for such naiveté - popular anarchist. I have no respect for them. Tell me again… how many Californian residents 18-20 voted? What less than 30%? Heh…

[cystic crypt]

many of them are pretty dumb (youngsters)
mind you, i think most people are pretty dumb . . . .

[GeZe]

in our minicaple elections less then 30% of ALL people voted

i’ll concede that a lot of them behave dumbly. they aren’t taught to use their heads. the veg on the tv, listen to music (really REALLY loud, which may contribute), and play video games. but surely you must realize that some of us use our head, otherwise we wouldn’t even be writing on this forum. besides, this isn’t even on topic. i’m done. if you won’t think this through (which, btw, isn’t smart - the opposite of which being…nevermind enough said), then nothing i can “say” will convince you.

you have a nihilistic attitude with regards to your abilities to convince people of anything.
that’s good. show’s a little maturity.
also it does not require intelligence to post on this forum. Many of us demonstrate that repeatedly.
Also very little after the first 10 or so posts follows topix here.

YOung people have this invincible feeling and believe that anything mundane like the government does not affect them.

Yeah… that’s good. Treasure that to be one of the few that know… :)

@TG:

sigh Come on TG…. tell me what you aim at, but don’t play dumb…

What I am trying to say is that US will remain a superpower given its considerable size.

If you consider China as a superpower for all of the time since it was founded, then i can follow you.

[TG Moses VI]

Then are you predicting an economic collapse?

[EmuGod]

If you say size as in the size of the land mass, then Canada is a superpower too!

[GeZe]

YAY Canada

[EmuGod]

Our neighbours to the south can be very nice, even though they dont understand us at times.

Yeah, and they’re the ones I feel sorry for. I prefer not to say my age, but I’m young. I know government does affect me. (I live in California so believe me, I know it affects me. Their attitudes sicken me. They’re going to be the ones who, as adults, stand around after an election (that they probably didn’t vote in) saying, “Wha-, What happened?” Anyway, no word could possibly describe the extent of my disgust. :x

size as in population and economy, silly Canadians
