You ignore the fact that US military supremacy has allowed all other nations to enjoy a certain level of security and prosperity. Take that away, and your precious eurosluts / eurotrash would have massive tax hikes necessary in order to stave off invasion.
You pretend like this wouldn't happen. We will see... Europe is faltering every day, with the failed constitution and protectionism.
Maybe the Merkel situation has the morons finally waking up. Or maybe they will be learning to use prayer rugs when its too late.
I really don't care. I'll be living a dream life in the USA. Hate me. HATE ME EUROSLUT. Hahahahahaha!!!!!
How do people live in Bangladesh (GDP=275B$) compared to Luxembourg (GDP=27B$)? I would reckon that in a head to head match up, Bangladesh would be 10x more likely to win an all-out war with Luxembourg.
GDP matters. GDP matters. With $0 GDP and 10,000,000 people, you cannot defend against a single nuclear strike by 100 people with enough GDP to buy a nuke.
7.5 million actually, as of 2004. Excellent! We are very rich indeed. Oh and that pesky debt figure you raise? Worthless, its mainly comprised of mortgage debt... so anyone with 84k in debt likely has a house, and also likely has far more equity than debt.
The bottom 20% of Americans make an average of 16k$/yr. Wow, thats like what a good euroslut makes... What pray tell does the bottom 20% of europe make? Care to take a look? I bet its pretty awful..
Nigeria : you can't be happy when you are dead. No matter how "happy" you claim they are, if they cannot defend themselves against invasion, infection, or corruption, all the happiness in the world is worthless after they die at age 35. No thanks, schmuck. I like clean drinking water. It makes me ***HAPPY***
Its not a popularity contest. Just because most of the world wants to be ruled by communists does not mean that I will want to steer my country in the direction to appease world opinion.
honestly, are you that stupid?
Most of the world wants the US to be less wealthy. Of fucking course they do. Why should I go along with that? You are insane.
Most of the world does not want me to have children. Again, why would I give a fuck?
Most of the world does not want me to own a gun or buy an SUV. So, what, you want me to be a good liberal and do what the lemming herd says? OK,... NOT!
Rather, I will do the opposite. I will make this country even more powerful and myself as sophisticated as possible. Rest of the world be damned...
I respect competition, like china, but the pussies who sit on the sidelines have no relevance.
First the liberals tell me how evil the rich USA is, then they tell me how poor we really are, and how were all too stupid to know how poor we are!
Oh good god... get a life. You are not going to change my belief that the USA is the wealthiest country in the world no matter how hard you thrash and tub-thump this slashdot thread.
Its pathetic.
Absolute GDP values are worthless? OK, then I guess Mexico is a "better" nation than anything in Europe. After all, GDP is worthless. Right?
America has over 5 Million people with at least a million bucks. Millions of Millionaires. Europe is not this way. No no no... you have to be a Schroeder to get your choder.
You think Americans are all suffering and writhing in the streets? You are an idiot. Happiness is a good method? You are fucking insane! This is a cop-out because happiness cannot be measured in dollars LIKE FUCKING DOLLARS CAN.
Nigerians have the "highest happiness quotient in the world"? Liberalism is a mental disorder my friend. You have crossed the line into batshit levels of stupidity and desperation.
You are so full of shit it stinks on this board. I'm hereby declaring Europe to be the most unhappy, unsuccessful, loathesom nation on the planet. Since we are using feelings as our metrics instead of actual quantifiable numbers.
I now declare Japan to be the happiest. And even they have more fucking dollars than eurosluts living in false realities...
Excuse you, but Islam hates a lot of people, not just America.
They hate the black christians in Sudan. They hate (HATE) the Israelis for thousands of years. They hate the India people in Kashmir. They hate somebody in Bali and Indonesia!! They hate scottlanders on Pan Am flights. They hate Russian school children in Beslan so much as to slaughter.
They hate, and you make excuses for them. Nice one. Are you a NAMBLA sympathizer also?
Agreed, the moon is no hop-skip-jump from low-earth orbit. But just a few innovations can lead to explosive growth. 10 years for commercial moon trips is too soon. 20 years is not.
Again, you think we are in financial trouble??!?!?!?!?
11 trillion GDP. YEAH! How troubling!!!!! ROFL ROFL ROFL
We can sell FORT KNOX in a flash for how much cash??!?!??! What do the FORT KNOX of the EU look like? Japans Fort KNOX? China's? Who has more gold?
We could sell Alaska drilling rights for how much cash?!?!?! How about the whole state?
And our real-estate. Baby, we gots the real estate. Sea to shining sea. We could sell 1 billion acres of national forest and be rich beyond our wildest dreams.
The fact is, we've been playing this game with one hand tied behind our back. If you want us to unload both barrels on the world, we will be richer than you can ever fathom.
America, as a poor country. Thats like **Batshit** levels of crazy...
No, only democrats pretend like we aren't helping Pakistan and only purchasing weapons or space vehicles...
We are already sending aid to pakistan. Bush has pledged $50 million. Much more will come from our government and our citizens who are free to up the ante.
-America's congress (House of Representatives + Senate) authorized the President to invade Iraq and Afghanistan.
-America's courts (Supreme) has overseen the process.
-America's people have voted and will vote again in 2006 and again in 2008 and again in 2010.
So, which constitution do you have in your country? Care to name your country? I have a really big suspicion that your country sucks!
People like you will throw out any conspiracy theory and lap it up just to be fucktards.
I bet Bush caused 9/11? And the TSUNAMI right? And the Pakistani earthquake? You are not even an american, yet you claim you ""KNOW"" our voting was rigged. Yeah. Right.
Go back under your rock now, you cockroach. If you ever get any evidence of that so-called fraud, feel free to present it to:
-A court with a Prosecutor / Judge / Grand Jury -A peer-reviewed science team (like forensic scientists) -An open debate among the american people
And our system of democracy has built in mechanisms to prevent tyrany... its called voting and impeachment.
So, if you studied much history, you would find it highly unusual for democracies to go to war with one another...
And the track record of the USA is outstanding. Other people who try to argue that the USA is evil, cannot demonstrate with specific examples other nations that have a better model, a more successful model, a model that has less suffering and more freedom built into its foreign policy.
You sound jealous... I suppose all the maiming of Nazis in WWII was just more money down the shitter...
But you hate me and my country for winning that fight. You hate to see us flex our muscles, even when we do so righteously, because your own muscles are flacid.
Wake up, history shows us that disdain for weapons leads to suffering. You think 6 billion people will just agree to be nice and sing kum-bai-yah? Thats the stuff that mental disorders are made of.
You seem resigned to the fact that the only way into Space in the future is via the benevolence of government. Have you been reading too many Chinese press releases?
I hope the powerful Rethuglicans apply their principles and continue to deregulate space access, paving the way for municipal spaceports and ventures like Armadillo and Space Ship One.
You are right that the democrats are essentially a non-player in the space faring aspirations of America.
We actually need a put down to call people who buy and use DRMed products. It seems like taunting and name calling might be the most effective way to make people reconsider buying in to DRM.
Think about it, walking past the store aisle, geeks can point and laugh at the "DeRMs" just like people used to laugh at geeks and say "nerds".
"Hey, look at those pathetic DERMS!" "Hey DERM, I'll be you let Microsoft decide when you use the potty also!".
But there's no reason we couldn't still go to each others parties! And we'd both feel much better knowing that each one of us has our own place to call "home" and to do whatever we like within at the end of the day.
Exactly... these people are using something we have graciously provided to them. Now our generocity is rewarded with bitching. Bitching that they want to OWN what we built. They want to OWN what we let them use.
And they even bitch at the idea that they build their own! Jeez... I guess we shouldn't have built the internet. We should have just bitched about how nice the French phone system was, and how mean it was of the French not to hand it over to us. All that complaining might have got us a French phone system right about now. But it would not have created the internet. Only willpower can do that.
These ingrateful, rude, international socialists need to take a good look at their soul. What in the fuck is keeping them from being as successful as we are? Why can't they make their own network? Why do they have to constantly bitch and complain that we arent' giving them enough? Why does Bush control their destiny? Why aren't they in charge of their own lives?
Do you think our ARMY our DARPA cried and whined when the Soviets made some kind of tech advancement? Do you think we went to the UN and wrang our hands about how "unfair" it is? I swear to god, Slashdot users are the most coddled babies on the fucking planet.

Wake me up when my GDP drops below 11 trillion.
Wake me up when Cubans stop swimming here.
Wake me up when my aircraft carriers and triden subs sink.
Wake me up whem my stealth bombers fall out of the sky.
Wake me up when my unemployment is that of a European nation.
Wake me up when I am no longer free to own a firearm, a house, and an SUV.
Which country is better than this "failure" I live in? Come on, coward! NAME THE BETTER COUNTRY.
It should be easy, cause my country is such a shithole, right?!?

See you later, fucktard.
So every time we launch a probe, we have Jewish blood on our hands...
And America has made no innovation since 1940s rocket technology.
Dude, thats some awesome crack you get to smoke in the asylum!

"Hey, look at those pathetic DERMS!" "Hey DERM, I'll be you let Microsoft decide when you use the potty also!".
Other suggestions?
We need them to scream about the "big trash pile" and "wasted plastic" again...
Because coming from the previous article on Sony, we all known consumers will lap up new DRM.
This is just like all the suckers buying their TIVOs and ATRACs and MEMORY STICKS.
Getting bitch slapped by DRM is a wake-up call and hopefully can compell the naive to research what they are buying a little bit more carefully.
But there's no reason we couldn't still go to each others parties! And we'd both feel much better knowing that each one of us has our own place to call "home" and to do whatever we like within at the end of the day.
They why don't they do what they want with it! Bwahahahaha.... don't make me laugh....
