Is America a failed nation?

[Laosai]

First of all, America is not a nation it's a continent.  Second, if the USA was a failed nation then you wouldn't have to ask because it wouldn't fail all alone.  Many other nation's success is bootstrapped off the USA's economy.  A better question would be: "Where is the USA located on the civilization bell curve."  I think it would be somewhere near the top but not over the crest.

United States of Mexico: called Mexico
United States of Britain: called Britain
United States of America: Don't dare calling it America

I wouldnt say we are a failure.

I say we are more like behind or lagging you can say.. we got the potential to be great again if trump gets president and bail our the banks or some stupid financial move.

The problem with them is not only the finance, but they are actually narrow minded, they can not fit with the advanced world, They have to trust on other nations and have to make themselves as a favourite nation just like the united kingdom and Canada.

The USA it is becoming to be a failed Nations.... I see a big regression in their politics, culture and society... Now, if a guy like Trump can be taken seriously, I guess the Nation is condemned...

There is a massive regression in every aspect of society in the US, and kind of in North America as a whole.

I'll also say that I'm not a Trump supporter, and I can't vote, but the thing is he speaks his mind and he isn't what people are protesting about. He's not homophobic or racist, however I can agree he is somewhat islamophobic. He was more pro-gay rights than Hillary before 2012, and only wants to deport illegal immigrants from the country. This doesn't mean all Mexicans. He's even said they can come back legally. But whatever, I guess you can't argue with what is said without being a racist bigot.

Due to certain issues taking place right now, it can't be quoted as a failed nation. These politics and other relative factors doesn't make flaws in their downfall. Only it might cause some collapse to neighbouring countries.

I can probably say im neutral to that issue  because america long time ago and now is same retain his power for economy they are largest contributor of the economy in every state and country they have. Very strong defense, armies and hi-tech weapons and many country afraid to not obey america. Because its contribution to economy. But let see how it goes for this election comes and how be the next leader lead the america.

What happened to the USSR during the 1980s is occurring with the United States right now.

During the early 1980s, there was a sharp increase in the population of the non-productive population groups in the USSR (Uzbeks, Tadzhiks, Azeris, Chechens, Daghestanis.etc), while the population of the productive groups remained stable (Russians, Ukrainians, Balts, Moldvins, Mordvins, Chuvash.etc). The pressure exerted by the non-productive groups became too large for the others to neutralize, and as a result the USSR collapsed. The same is ongoing in the US right now.

Its not just the US though.

If we are talking about stupid crony politics, its every political leader involved in their country that sets this up.

But yeah america is probably a #1 of that list lol.

It's terrible to see you trying to explain something so complex simply with a mere analysis of the populations of a country.

You're summing up things in a terrible way. You forget absolutely everything in fact, taking into account only a shitty argument of population ethnics.

What about global economy? Importance of banks? Change of resources?

No everything can surely be sumed up by an ethnical approach

And because of the greed of reaching that top. A wrong leader could be chosen and maybe that will make them a failed country after that wrong choice of them. Regrets will be in the end.

Exactly America is never a failed nation. In all factors of growth America is in the lead. Even in our bitcoin adoption they are in the lead. So never can consider it a failed nation.

You mean in growth of people believing Earth is flat? In growth of people believing angels are real? In growth of prisoners per habitants?

Cause I don't see any domain where America is leading... Except number of wars lost xD

[Wendigo]

Americans know how to enjoy life I give them that. I don't think they are that much narrow-minded it's just the belief that USA is the greatest country on Earth which is false. Maybe they are just overly patriotic I don't know. While I do not like their government and the instigated wars I do envy their life style sometimes. I think we as Europeans live a much more stressful every day life and can't just relax on the weekends either.

Maybe it's because we're more aware of how this world is going to garbage. Which prevents us from being "relaxed" as you say.

I believe all this political game is more sophisticated than it seems. We see just a part of the pie.

The whole greed comment is sort of redundant when its any country.

But the ones I can recall people saying they are america as a nation would be super activists which are usually grass roots type of people.

I mean I call myself an american, but dont consider as a nation.
