It's doubtful that America could have defeated the Soviet Union after WWII let alone the entire world. Additionally, it would have been impossible to retain the new territory. Conquering the planet through force can never be achieved, hence why it has never happened. |
Agreed. And in fairness, America couldn't even conquer a handful of small 3rd world countries in the last few years.

You honestly believe they are trying to conquer those countries? The death toll in the middle east is super 1 sided. I see a lot of people underestimating the U.S military right now. We have by far the best military currently and could take out any country still with the amount of firepower and advanced technology we have. It's not like all that money that we spend on the military doesn't do anything. We still spend the most out of any other country by far.

We owe china nearly 1 trillion US dollars and it's growing. They are the #1 country we borrow money from. Our 2011 military budget was 664 billion. Overall, we owe around 3 trillion in foreign debt. We couldn't afford to wage war unless we borrow money or cancel some welfare checks.
