Is America A Future World Power? Can They Play The Game To Win?

The world leadership moniker is being chased by countries throughout the world but who is winning and how are they doing it? The Middle East is run on Religion, the Far East on Economy, and the West on Politics, three unique philosophies with three unique possibilities. We have the Far East where slave labor and unfair trade practices abound but with economic power comes political clout and many believe China and India will be setting world policy for some time to come.

In the Middle East you have Syria and Iran trying to manipulate the region by use of the Islamic religion. You also have jokers like Muqtadr al-Sadr manipulating tens of thousands through religious fanaticism. Lastly we have Europe and the America’s who try to run their countries by democratic means, in a perfect world a democracy is the most fair of policies but the democracy policy is being blindsided by the economic polices of the Far east and the racist behavior of the Middle East. It is these three unique policies which makes the next few years very important for America and the world because our very core values are appearing to be changing and the leadership of the world, not just the free world, is being contested for whether you like it or not.

One thing America must remember is that without economic power we will have no political clout; this is a sad but true reality in the modern world. Russia does not tolerate Iran because it likes them; it does so for economic gain. China does not tolerate North Korea because it wants to; it does so to avoid being overrun by North Korean illegal immigrants. America is shelling out billions in foreign aid while neglecting its own infrastructure. If America does not keep up with modernization it will suffer economically and then it will be in a very weekend and vulnerable state.

If America becomes economically weak it will be an opening for the radically charged racist radical Islamic Fundamentalists elements. These elements will come in and try to exploit unemployment and hopelessness in America and this will cause a large amount of citizens to turn on our own Government and seek personal gain more than national unity. We must not create a breeding ground in America for terrorist trying to exploit economic problems.

What must be done? We must fight the war on terror wherever we find it but we must also make sure we invest in America much more than we have. When we provide jobs to Americans we keep American citizens out of trouble and away from crime. If we are all busy seeking a better life we will not adhere to radical elements trying to exploit a hard time for their own personal gain.

To be a world leader in the modern era we must utilize intelligence in the Economy, Religion, and Economic areas. We must not divert money away from our own country without considering the future ramifications. It does us no good to defeat terrorism in Iraq if we create a hornet’s nest of terror right here in the United States; we have to be smarter than this.
