Have you noticed that USA is into a big time war in Iraq and one in Afghanistan and also, dubya says, there is a war on terror and so the USA is building up big monster DEBT and all the while the Chinese and Russians are rapidly increasing their GDPs and their Military----And do you know this is the exact same scenario that Russia was in, during the 1980s before they went boom---lopez curious why human beings make the same mistakes over and over and over and yet, always believe they are right and also always believe god is with them....odd
