@student135 If Hitler was here, the world would be even more full of wars and local struggles for independence. The age of empires died long ago, wake up and smell the coffee.

All the haters can blah blah blah and say whatever they want. If you want the US to regain its momentum, you need to work harder and to spend less. Can you do something as simple as this? If not, just shut up and get lost. You are just wasting your time here.

Let's suppose China's GDP were FOUR TIMES as big as the US, it would then still have a net per capita income less than that of the US as it has 4 1/2 times as many people.
