In Europe, the countries are almost like little cities.The USA has been the superpower of the world for some time.There is a big difference when it comes to matters of defense.

Mostly mindless fluff or excerises in escapism designed to stupify the masses and let them forget they are drones.Change that system, and we could be well back on the path of being a true superpower again.

Who knows, in 50 years Assange could be regarded as a hero who exposed the corruption of super-powers around the world...or he could be regarded as a traitor/spy who tried to sabotage world order.

We need to take our current gross annual budget and reduce it by 10%-20% or so - start with a blank slate - and reorganize and priortize where to spend that newly allotted budget amount.I think Rich is right and we are amidst a bit of a perfect storm, but I wouldn't call it perfect storm number 2. rather I would liken it to having travelled 2+ years through the storm, we've now reached the eye of the storm, and likely won't make it out the other side on stable ground for another 2+ years.Truth be told, we can remain dominant on the world stage but will no longer be the lone "superpower" we once were.

we have all seen that the USA economy has affected worldwide stock markets.I have been reading books on economics lately, not just USA but Africa and international. one of the books (incidently that Obama has read) discusses the future economics of our world based on the thesis that the rest of the world will have a higher standard of living in the future, and what this means for America is that rather than being the sole superpower that America will have to learn to get along with other rising economies in the future.the most important point I have come across so far, is that what we need is more entrepreneurs not more welfare, not just in the USA, but in economies in general, including Africa and everywhere else. aid is good for temporary but not permanently.politics have their role in regulating but they are not business entrepreneurs (excepting a rare few). so I thought I would throw this out there, for those who may be thinking 20-30 years down the road, and what will be the next step long after our current situations have been taken care of and our current politicians are no longer in office etc.

Because of their financial foresight, they were able to create a system that has fueled our growth as the world's super power for the past century.To the contrary, I think they did us a favor.

In fact, with recent enhancements to the Podio/ Globiflow integration, we are now able to deploy super powerful workflows along with the template.

No, that is how the hustlers and peolpe that always will be struggling are getting "leads" (yes I use that word lightly).Let me show you how middle aged mutant ninja turtles masters of the universe sherahumpinheman yoda totin X-man superpowered imortales do lead generation...Ready?

Sometimes I wish I had a super power where I didn't have to sleep and could just crank out late night learning into the wee hours of the night.

Something I heard that was really useful was “live how others won’t so you can live how others can’t” and I thought that was super powerful to hear!
