>>It is the catalyst for reallignment of global economies and future engines of prosperity. The impact will reverberate throughout this century.<< Huh? Where exactly do you expect world growth to come from? Russia, Germany & France? Their combined 3.5T in GDP vs the 12.7T of US, UK, ITALY(not including Spain & Italy). The US consumer fuels global growth. Europe relies on the US consumer much more than we rely on them. Europe's big countries are facing population declines due to low fertility rates & lack of immigration. We not only have a stable fertility rate, but hungry immigrants. The economies of France & Germany are still bogged down with heavy welfare state disincentives. Aamerica is a beacon of optimism. Where else are the downtrodden immigrants supposed to go? Europe won't take them. Gimme a break with the new world order. France is gambling that there will be no longterm ramifications economically once the war is over(probably true). French business leaders are terrified. German business leaders are terrified. In addition, the eastern bloc is terrified of a Franco-Deutsche-Moscow bloc much more than US domination.
