    Well, I must admit that I underestimated a lot of things two decades ago when the US managed to fight off the eurodollar from its threat to the petrodollar by squashing Saddam.

    But eventually, you cannot escape from reality, not even by ignoring science or history.

    History tells us that all empires eventually crumble under their own weight. This is usually caused by trying to control more land than they have the military, population, and/or economic resources for.

    The only spark that'll ignite the demise is electing megalomaniac leaders.

    I'll not even bother giving you dozens of confirmed examples because those who need to know will always choose the leader's lies over certified facts.
