Re: First of all, if we were to default with our position in the world, there is no one who is stupid, strong and rich enough to pick the reigns.
So what? I don't see it as a "problem"... Besides, I think China will soon prove "strong and rich enough to pick the reigns" --now, I grant you that China might not be as "stupid" as the US...
Re: Europe would be in big trouble......as you well know, the big black bear to the east of you is awakening from his slumber......extremely re invigorated and sassy......and he has one hand on the spigot that controls your heat supply.
Europe is in big trouble already... The only thing that's holding it together is a strong euro (currently at a record high against the USD) which gives Europeans the illusion that they're prosperous and successful... As for Russia, she owes her current "Warholian span" of prosperity to Wall Street: hedge funds have driven oil and gas prices well above their fundamentals(*). Now, I don't see why a more prosperous Russia is a threat to Europe? After all, most European businesses would rather have Russian shareholders than Arab ones! Moreover, you seem to miss the fact that Russia is no longer Communist, quite the opposite --Russia's probably the first experiment in anarcho-capitalism. BTW, isn't it funny that you Americans keep warning Europeans against the threat for Europe to be taken over by anarcho-capitalist Russia while US corporations are quietly gobbled up by COMMUNIST China?!?! (Lenovo/IBM, Haier/Whirlpool,...)
Re: as screwed up as the US is, this world can't afford to lose us.
LOL... I'm afraid the world desperately needs a BREAK from US warmongering... Roll back your hundreds of thousands of troops worldwide and get them a job at home.
Re: Europeans like yourself need to back off and do what you can to help us......because we are floundering badly and ready to sink.
I'm helping you by telling you the truth (at least MY truth) and opening your eyes... How can Europe help the US when it comes to your #1 challenge, namely, Hispanic mass immigration (see my previous post #352348)? Do you want France and Britain to summon the UNSC to deploy UN blue helmets along the US-Mexico border? Do you want to set up a mass airlift from lily-white Europe to the US --of pretty, blond, white Europeans-- to boost the birthrate of white Americans and offset that of nonwhite Americans?
And last but not least, as regards the US folie à deux with Israel, how can we help? Do you expect Europe to wage war against Iran? That will spell civil war across Western Europe between Muslims and Whites... I don't think many Europeans are as gung-ho about RAHOWA as you white Americans are... Most Europeans remember all too well where such racial politics/warfare led them last time they fell for it, they know that the Hitlers, the Mussolinis, the Francos, the Pétains and their hubristic fantasies will lead them nowhere....
