Read "The coming fall of China" for an educated insight from a well informed Chinese gentleman.

Read "Dark Ages America" by Morris Berman for educated insight on the ongoing fall of the United States, economically, and, even more importantly socially and culturally.

Again, don't be so anxious for that, it will bode ill for you. As for the cultural fall, I agree.....right behind you lot. :

Don't be so anxious to see China rise, it won't go well for you.

I am an American, though I have left the country. Just going to watch the fireworks of the collapse from afar. The loss of a culture built on hustling isn't so bad.

That is fine, do us all a favor and see to that you watch from afar if that is your attitude. Tootle loo.

I'll admit it's been entertaining so far.

Good; the last laugh will be on you IMO. Keep smiling.

Are there any examples post WW2 where America has got involved for the better?

[Nom de ploom]

The easy answer to the OP is it depends on your frame of reference.

if you stand in Israel, Egypt, China, Britain, Moscow etc you will get very different answers.

No problem. I'm off to plan my second 3-week vacation of the year now, set to take place once my 3rd and final month of fully-paid parental leave runs out. What do you think about Ko Tao in November? Always wanted to learn to dive.

I'd prefer Belize, but have fun.

I can see why, traveling so far is difficult on a week's vacation. Too bad they won't let you burn up all two weeks at once.

Well, my leave carries over year to year, I have six months available. Sorry for not taking your obvious bait; you tried though, good boy.

Is the correct answer PistonHeads?

Not at all. I believe if a UN-type organization was crafted, with the PH collective in charge, the world may be a better place.

Just communicating in terms a member of the hustling community would understand. Thanks for the laugh.

No problem; that hustling community you so despise will be around long after whatever cradle to grave teet you are sucking off is gone. Try to be less obvious, you might yet manage to sneak up on someone.

Did you say you had 6 months of carried-over leave?

No wonder you are so angry -- and bitter.
