End of USA as Global SuperpowerThe USA will become another Europe but without the class, culture and history.In 1940, the qualities possessed by the British were independence, self-reliance, individual initiative, responsibility, tolerance, voluntary service and respect for custom, tradition and authority, but without reliance on them. To-day Britons are almost the opposite and as a consequence Britain is very different. 40 percent of people in the UK now receive state handouts and the reflex response to any passing inconvenience is to demand the government something. Under Obama, the USA is on the same disastrous path, even though two-thirds of the electorate opposes what Obama is imposing upon them. Half of those in a bankrupt Britain after World War 2 wanted to go to a welfare state like lambs to the slaughter after escaping the Nazi jackboot. The socialists were elected with almost 50% of the vote to implement a 'cradle to grave' welfare state starting with the British National Health Service. Once in place, Britain has found that this welfare mentality is a crutch which can never be removed. The USA is on an increasingly self absorbed moral decline.
