Jodie? Heh! That's all right.
Well, I was kinda a bit young to recall about the Cold War but I do remember there were 'talks' about having the concerns being run so high that it was worrying a lot of us. There are a lot of 'what ifs' questions that is presented out there but it does not mean that it could or couldn't happen. I, too, hope it doesn't happen at all. Nothing is really secure now these days.

Interesting response, Jiro - Although, You have some points that I wanted to ask. While I do agree that USA is far off too big for any other nations to take over. However, What if they had the money, manpower and equipments to be able to pull it off? What if they were able to improve their defenses? If that were to happen, what's going to happen then?

Fail? Well, I don't think America will actually fail. Sure, America may have been through a lot of rough patches in the entire 232 years since the Declaration of Independence was entered - It has not failed. America has been through the Great Depression and did we fail? No, We bounced right back. We are in this current global economy situation and that goes for a lot of other countries too. They are doing fine too.
So, I ask you, Why is it that you think America will be the next to fail?
