Rick,
It is nice to find that somebody agrees with me for a change. <grin>

Either we shoulder the job of being "world policeman" forever or we stand aside and let the world go its own way. What I think would likely happen is that you would go back to a nuclear version of the multi-polar world that existed before the spectacular rise of the British Empire. You would have regional wars and probably some local nuclear exchanges but for the world this should be very survivable and also instructive.

This would help break up dangerous concentrations of power and keep things diffuse and local. I think it would greatly help the environment and slow resource depletion.

And to get this wonderful outcome all we have to do is walk away and allow chaos to reign.

There is now longer an "Evil Empire" (and it surely was one in its day) so we no longer need to be the "global superpower".

Let freedom ring.
