I posted below that you guys could end up like Spain, I slow grind into 2nd then 3rd tier power.  That's the worst case, not what I think will happen.  I think you will get a deal, life will go on, flowers will grow in the spring.

I am pulling for the zombies though cause well, I'm evil ;).

What's the worst that could happen........ Well you Yanks could end up like Rome.  Over stretched military, huge debt, massive corruption, middle class being destroyed, slave labor taking all the jobs (illegals and outsourcing).  Sounds familliar.....

Thing is there are no barbarians to deliver the death blow.... you would more likely end up like Spain in the late 1500's.  After being the world power built by  the riches of the new world their kings screwed up for decades.  They borrowed money against gold from the new world that was on it's way back to finance endless wars against the Turks, France, England and the Dutch.  Privaters hired by their enemies made sure their gold never reached Spain, and the unsuccessful wars and lavish spending on castles and palaces Spain went bankrupt several times. 

They didn't collapse like Rome but slowly became a nothing on the world stage, plagued by inflation.  That is more likely then a Rome style collapse.

Or the dead could rise pissed off that the country is in the shape it's in and feast on us all...... either or.

Hey max stupidus,

Who has run up more debt in 4 years than all other presidents combined?  obama is a failure, re-elected by other failures who depend on the almighty government for their livelihoods.

I don't know about everyone else, but I'm sick & tired of supporting these LAZY welfare people that only have more kids so they can get MORE $$, i.e. food, housing, medical, & other handouts! And why in the world do we have to support these "latinos" coming over the border just to have their kids & run back to Mexico & collect SS benefits for their brats! What the hell! Can I have my kid in Mexico & get their government to support my brat too?  And this crap of extending the unemployment benefits is just another way LAZY people get to LEECH off of the system. If I can work at a minimum wage job to get by...why can't these LAZY people do it as well!  And REALLY, who cares if we have a zillion types of coral in the ocean or some groundhog is going to lose his home! The ocean is HUGE & we have millions of groundhogs everywhere! Have science pay for their research instead of the government! And as for the rich, quit giving them loophole after loophole to hide their money! Also I agree the white house and congress is WAY OVER PD FOR WHAT THEY *DON’T* DO. We need a businessman in the president’s seat, not a pattycake sissy!!
