Also, despite the shadow numbers the Chinese government puts forth about their economics, their economy will overtake ours. If we continue down current spending levels their currency will be worth more than ours.
Rome fell before, it will fall again.

some interesting data there to compare. rome didn't have the technology nor the means, but the u.s. is going to enter into post-empire slowly. slower than the u.k. did, and milk it for everything.
