How will America end?

My theory: China is buying our up our debt by hudreds of billions a year. When the US government appropriates 600 billion for defense and then cuts taxes by 70 billion, that money has to come from somwhere and we borrow it from other countries. When China has enough of our debt, they will call it in and we will be unable to pay. Now the US dollar falls in the toilet and bread costs $500 a loaf. Chaos ensues, and soon America is a third world country.
What's your theory?

Tom Cruise befriends George Bush and turns him on to Scientology, which in turn drives Bush into a state of deep madness leading to him pressing that big red shiny button under the Oval Office desk.

That is indeed a well thought out, not to mention eloquent response. I would like to withdraw my crackpot theory in light of this new and irrefutable evidence. I will now go commit hari kari to save my honor.

It's very easy to answer that accurately.
The USA are the UNITED STATES of AMERICA
This will crumble once they no longer stand united. I'd say another civil war, but far more scattered than north/south duality ever was, but with a zillion factions and interests being fought for. America will eat itself. A force so mighty as the USA can only selfdestruct, like the USSR, the Roman Empire and so on.

Umm first we will need to get rid of the people that are fucking up our country which are the conservatives which don't even conserve anything and the religious right who live in a fairy tale land.
So after we kill them off in a civil war then we will use the economy to control the world, again, just like we controlled South America and still do.

The people in charge right now are NOT conservatives. They just use the title. They are so far from conservatives, I'd dare say they are liberals.

Excactly. The "conservatives" in power right now are spending this country into the ground. What's the deficit at now, 5 trillion? And where are we borrowing most of the money from? Asia.

All of homos in America dancing at gay pride parades one day will cause a huge rainbow to spontaneously appear above and cover the entire north American continent. Shortly after, a never ending supply of skittles will start raining down and everyone in America will drown in the sea of skittles.

As long as their tropical Skittles, that's not too bad. Well, except for all the gays.

Judging from the domestic use of pharmaceuticals it has already begun. A big homo rainbow across America would be cool though. The east coast and west coast could use a big pot of gold by now.

I think it will eventually split into multiple smaller nations, but by 'eventually' I mean like, possibly many decades from now. I think it will decline because of global factors like the rising importance of China and India and the reduction of american soft power and cultural domination, but it will continue to be a powerful and wealthy country for the rest of our lives barring some insane catastrophe
