I think one can see in this thread that I exactly did not focus on military power, but internal factors that put this optimistic view of America into question. In the end it is a state that is as bankrupt as bankruptcy can go. The national debt exceeds the yearly GDP.

Economic powerhouse? Sounds more like a powerhouse build on quick sand. The question is how it will end: simply sinking in, and disappearing, or unleashing a huge war in a desperate effort to find relief from the financial strangling by debts.

When watching at the many historic precedents, probability speaks in favour of the second scenario.
