Does that fact that we have the worlds largest budget make a difference? What about the fact that America has the worlds best military in the world?(that recently broke the 4th most powerful military in the world) Does the fact that you can come from a 3rd world country to America and live in the American dream make a difference? I guess my point is you are only looking at the worst of the situation, much like todays media, and completly ignoring all the good things.

And with the terrorists, you got me on some of those facts but I think that you can agree that the terrorists also hate America simply because its America. The way of life here, the culture, the religous backgrounds, I think its perrty obvoius that they arnt very happy with those either.

@KillThePreppies how about you stfu? This is the Arcane Sactuary. Not the Aslyum. Go flame over there, not here.

Just a question...like...aren't you against immigration? I seem to remember you arguing against immigration in the past.

Im agianst illegal immigration. We are all immigrated here did we not? As for Tipsy's comment, Carthagine(or however you spell it rivialed Rome). So did thousands of barbarions. Keep in mind that Rome was attacked to the breaking point, but now almost no country has the Navy to transfer enough troops to fight at our home

Cartaghe was no match for Rome. That's why they defeated them so easily. Took some years, yes, just like anything in that time.

As Tipsy said, Rome felt after around three centuries after the starting of its decline. Nowadays, it would be a matter of few years, because of global communications.

well i voted facist even tho im not 1
i just was payinh homeage 2 hitler
u gott 2 hand it 2 him he was an amazing leader and brillant tactitian

[Forged]

Yes a brilliant tactican, nothing like stalingrad in december. Hitler made some of the worst wartime decisions ever....

[Eclipse_Hope]

well perosnally i think we still have that dominance over the world as much as any past day(mritarily). But, ecnomics is failing and its all the major corperations(i.e outsourcing and off-shoring). But, ecomoics is the base of a nation..and ours is steadly crumbling.
Just respect my views Dont call me dum becuz its rather a fact then an opinion

ya ur right, if he just kept his way with russia democracy(non agresion ppact of 1939) would be long gone.
After all no one ever wins a 2 front war....well exept us..lol

I doubt it, Facist and Communist don't exactlly see eye to eye, and would eventually end up fighting each other. I would assume that Germany with their superior equipment would have won. Hitler just had horrible timing.

Ya, i gues he could only get soo lucky..but there were other thing such as the lufewafe attacking cicties instead of airfields in britian at critical times....
if that war would have went on any more then a 6 months longer wed not be here right now... hitler had 3 new superwepons that were coming out which would have changed the face of war.
1=the jet fighter
2=erwin romel<==yes hes a super wepon
3=longer ranged artillery techniques and barrels

omg ima just make a new forum bout ww2! good idea?

[Forged]

If hitler had listend to rommel on a few key points he would have definatlly won the war.

So you think that immigrants should have a shot at the "American dream" as long as they're "legal"? Why not illegal immigrants too? Just for security purposes?

Illegals don't pay taxes.
If I pay taxes, then Josa pays taxes.

[CelestialBadger]

So you would advocate closing off-shore tax shelter loopholes for corporations?

Hard to pay taxes when you don't have the ability. If they could register to become citizens they could pay taxes.

Facism and Communism are so oftenly confused it's disgusting. The point of facism is rule by fear. The point of Communism is that everyone owns everything. Facism inherently breeds dissent, and with Communist regimes, there is no incentive to work.

[Eclipse_Hope]

ya i agree totally, people always wonder th difference between fascist and commies and i just give the the stupid look.....

[Emperor Pan I]

Communism is what I think is the best. Though it can never truely happen in a society of man because of to many stupid people, it is ultiamtely the best choice. Man has to many failings. Corruption and greed, to pure laziness.

The Soviets, Cuba, china they arn't communist. It's a bastardized political system that is referred to as communism by the west to stop people from wanting communism.

[TrongaMonga]

Actually, they refer to themselves as communists.

[Forged]

Pan the reason communism is stupid and won't work is because The Dr. deserves more money than the guy pumping my gas.
