Just sit back and HONESTLY ask your self if you would want to live
in a world without the USA?

Yes. The world would quite possibly be a damn site better place without
the US or at least its leaders but then again we will never know will we.
The US has no respect for the individual or their lives. Retaining the
death penalty as it does and openly practising torture and the denial of
international law suggests the US, or its authorities, is at best a
primitive society and at worst a nation of savages.

The much maligned USA although it is NOT perfect, it is one of the
better systems out there and their citizens enjoy a level of freedom
that most of the world can only wish for.
Now for the questions:
What shape would the rest of the world be without the USA? If you
were to take any *one* other country off the face of the globe over
night the world would continue much the same as what it is now.
However should the USA be gone tomorrow morning, how many of you
think the world would continue on much the same as what it is now?
Now for another statement:
I dare say that should the USA be gone tomorrow morning the world
would find its' self in quite a dire predicament. The only way I
could see the world not self destructing should the USA disappear
would be for Canada, England and yes Australia to band together to
take up the slack; because although even combined they don't wield
not even half the military might of the USA, those three countries DO
believe in freedom of democracy and of the individual, England for
the rule of law, Canada for stiff necked sticking to what is right
and Australia for the individual rights of everyone.
Much of the world sits around and knocks the USA; but I just don't
think they understand the consequences should the USA disappear. If
the USA were more like Russia or even pre-WWII Germany we would rule
the world instead of trying to give the countries of the world a
chance at self determination.
Just sit back and HONESTLY ask your self if you would want to live
in a world without the USA? and remember I said honestly without any
nationalistic pride or what ever. Just think what shape the rest of
the world would be in had the USA never been founded?
