Master Blaster: The American Way.

Greetings,

As u know, U.S. is the super power like Roman empire was. But every super power or empire have a strategy or secret to make itself alive and powerful, until one day someone will figure out what is the secret behind the success.

The Roman empire fell by the hands of northern barbarians because the barbarians figured the weakness and the "secret" of the Roman Empire.

Does the U.S. have a secret to make itself powerful? will it fall like all the super powers did in the past like the Roman empire?

I think the so called "secret" is not a secret, but a very good strategy that made everyone in the world to follow it as "a way of life in our time".

Did anyone watched MadMax movies? if so, do u remember a character on the last MadMax movie whose name was MASTER BLASTER?

Master Blaster are actually one small weak guy on top of a huge muscular guy. They both wear iron masks and looked hurifying. Until MadMax beat the hell out of them and saw their faces: the small guy is an old guy that looked like wise and the big guy who looked like he got a down syndrome who was trained by the small guy.

I think the U.S. is a "Master Blaster" country: Its citizens (from birth) are like the Blaster Guy, who r well trained from birth to do what they have to do and they could be sports people, engineers, entertainers, etc. On the contrary, the Master are the people who come from other countries who struggled to immigrate to the U.S. and succeded in their lives.

Basically, The U.S. needs just "the few" of these people to survive.


What do u guys think?

The 'secret' military tactic that will bring the US down is facing the troops in Iraq everyday - ambush, kamikaze tactics.

Complacency, apathy and pure dee laziness is whats going to bring us down. Most of us are only temporarily concerned about distracting and obtrusive events that interrupt our good times and sense of well being as we go about our narcisistic existence. WAKE UP! and give a # like you mean it before its to late. Don't trade comfort and the appearance of safety for freedom.

i agree with phoenix on this one... and i though rome fell because nero burned it down?

Alot of things happened to cause Rome's fall. There wasn't any "secret" to it.

The army lessened, the gap between the rich and the poor increased, and trade diminished. Those are the basic factors of Rome's downfall. The Barbarians just happened to be there when it fell.

Actually the provinces(Italian) as they were threatend or overun tried to bribe the invaders with riches in order to maintain their personal safety, the invaders took what they wanted and ravaged their women - sometimes this tactic worked, most of the time it did'nt change a thing. There are parables in the modern world that we should be watchful for because of a reoccurance of this weak will to fight and defend ourselves.
