The Center Is Not Holding

Check out Gary North over at lewrockwell site, on the worries of the powers that be.  On the same page, a fellow has listed 15 recent statistics about poverty in America...  The two go together well.  Foreignors will support USA indolence as long as we are transferring technology that is more valuable to them than the money they are sending to us.  When that ends, it will get very ugly very fast in USA.  There will be no more foreign support, and no imperial power, we will produce a strong leader, he (perhaps a she, remember... Margaret Thatcher immediately got the UK into a war...) will lead us into more oppression and war, but we'll lose, in one big action like the Russian empire went down in the straits of Tsushima in 1905. And then we'll slowly sink into the dark ages that ex-empires sink into... and settle, somewhat broken up, into a tourist playland, like Italy or Greece.  Gee whiz, we'll say, we really weren't any different than anyone else.

This country will need a Hong Kong like China needed a Hong Kong. Loyal and independent.  USA Navy would put a cordon sanitaire around this territory, and USA/New Hong Kong relations would be conducted through New Hong Kong leaders and the Admiral in charge of this base. Since all policies would be unilateral, there would be no need for any foreign office.
