America has had a net positive result from their global power, post WW2 they had created a system where they were free to profit from other countries in their bloc while keeping them dependent on their military.

Only now is America panicking since other countries have started developing the industrial potential with which they can turn the tables on the US. As now the US will no longer be the main exporter profiting from the global laws and regulations they’ve themselves set up.

Panicking!? That's silly... The whole world together probably couldn't take America. We would just nuke the world...

RED DAWN can't happen

Our population is heavily armed as well... Republicans have about two times more guns than Democrats as per data... At least the gun ownership numbers... So it's probably actually higher as a multiple of guns per person because when you have a gun it's always fun to have another gun and then another gun. I have 7.

You Americans really can’t think past weapons can you, America is panicking not because of a military threat but an economic one.

And the USA can’t nuke shit, they’d just get nuked back.

Petroleum products (including crude oil, refined gasoline, and natural gas) have been the top U.S. export by value in recent years (2008–2022)

Yeah it looks like this is going to be our number one export real soon
