America Faces Disintegration

In America, the Democrats and Republicans have finally reached an agreement on a debt reduction plan. President Obama stated that as a result of this plan, a trillion dollars will be cut from government spending over the next 10 years. The bill was passed in the House by a vote of 269 to 161.

Despite being the world’s greatest military and political power, the United States is in more debt than any other nation in the world. Currently, its gross debt is over $14 trillion. According to an American report, the government would have quickly ceased to function adequately had the debt limit not been increased.

It has been speculated that America may disintegrate as a country between the years of 2011 and 2015. According to one report, Obama may impose martial Law in the near future. The same report claims that America may very likely break into many little pieces, just like the Soviet Union did.

This is not the first time that America has had a financial crisis. It faced similar hardships in 1933, the 1970s and during the later years of the Bush administration. Bush, however, was less concerned with his people losing their homes and more concerned with declaring war on other countries. Bush’s “war-addicted” policies continue today, and America is brashly expanding its military presence around the world.

Dennis Blair, the former United States Director of National Intelligence, has said that America is spending $80 billion to try to capture 4,000 terrorists. He has also said that only 17 American civilians have been killed by these extremists since 9/11, whereas 1.5 million Americans have been killed due to traffic accidents and domestic crimes during the same period of time.

We already know that America’s wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the country’s “war-addicted” policies are a great threat to the world, but now we are learning that its actions will also cause great damage to itself. Its 50 states are on the verge of collapse. I have learned that a country’s geography changes once its fortunes evaporate.
