  1. But except for military hardware, the US produces very little. The reason it has such a large GDP is because it is a financialized economy dependent on other nations sending their money to Wall Street to speculate on the US dollar, a shaky bond market, and an overinflated stock market. Whereas other nations actually have manufacturing industries; the US now manufactures very little. Many of these industries were exported from the US to take short-term advantage of cheaper labor, no labor laws, and low infrastructure costs. The US is doomed; the majority of the population only earns a meager income, the cost of living is far beyond most other countries, it has no real infrastructure, it doesn't produce anything for sale in domestic markets, and spends much of its tax revenue on the Military Industrial Complex. The corporations own the media and continually pump out propaganda to distract from Washington corruption. Even the government has been privatized with corporations installing their puppets throughout all branches of government subverting the last remnants of democracy. You can vote all you want, but the only winner will be Wall Street. Most at the top understand their fate, but there are a few hundred million still ignorant of the final quarter. No wonder the owners of the United States (Plutocrats) are thinking of tossing the chessboard and starting a war with China to distract the rubes; and I wouldn't like to be around when the thermo-nukes start flying. The best suggestion I have is to pack your bags and put up a sign, "Would the last person out the door, please turn off the lights". Maybe you should be booking your non-return flights to Puerto Rico right now.
