Physics define energy as the capacity to do work. If we don't have energy, we can't work. If we can't work, the economy comes to a grinding halt, if the economy comes to a grinding halt, unemployment increases, social unrest skyrockets, perhaps God-forbid, even a civil war might ignite. Then those in power with the ability to control resources will control the those that don't. America will loose big.
If America is the country that champions freedom, who then wants the power that comes from freedom to be quenched? What forces are willing to keep nations in bondage? What is the best way to control a nation? So how does a powerful nation loose it's power? Could it be through inflation? And who stands to gain by causing America to loose it's power? We all can agree that there are several nations that want this, but what about the enemy inside our borders?
It appears that those in power (politicians), if they don't have internal moral character will succumb to greed as they descend into the realm of having others worship them. The inability to self regulate, will cause new laws to be created to control human behavior, and this never works in the long run. The American Bar Association reports a steady 5-7% increase in new legalized gun slingers (lawyers - not picking on lawyers, there are some really good ones, and some really bad ones). They have to earn a living, so enters the high cost of lawsuits.
So again I ask, how does a nation loose it's power? Maybe 40 years or so ago someone with a really bad idea won. They got rid of the 10 commandments from public schools because they argued it was a good idea to separate church and state. How stupid! So now greed is left unchecked, and the results are being played out right now before our eyes.
