The time has finally come for the United States (US) Empire to decline after being the world's hegemon since the end of World War II.
It is important to note that the US, during that time, had the incredible advantage of having inherited the wealth of the former European and Japanese colonies after their own collapse. The People's Republic of China, on the contrary, has become a super power today on her own. Please click on this link for more: https://youtu.be/O7ns0u69G7w
The distinguished US Marine Major General Smedly Butler realized that the US is an empire, and wrote a book in 1935, WAR IS A RACKET, to explain how the US uses war to enrich its oligarchs at the expense of US soldiers' lives.
The previous year, some oligarchs had approached him to lead the overthrow of US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, because they did not want to pay for his New Deal. Although Butler revealed the plot, the US did nothing to the oligarchs.
Today, almost 40 million Americans live in poverty, and another 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck, while 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are Americans too. 90% of Americans want to MAKE AMERICA A REAL DEMOCRACY, and not just GREAT FOR ONLY 10%!
Did you know that the US has consistently refused to comply with 44 United Nations resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico's sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans?

6 million Puerto Ricans, two thirds of the nation, live today away from their national territory, because the US has forced them to seek a better life elsewhere. Almost half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico live in poverty too. Bad Bunny made reference to this in his Super Bowl Halftime Show, which infuriated President Trump!
As a result of US brainwashing, half of Puerto Ricans on the island want Puerto Rico to become another state of the US in order to achieve equality with the citizens on the mainland. Little do they know that 90% of Americans on the continent don't have equality with the top 10% of their fellow countrymen. Hence, democracy is impossible under capitalism!
China, on the other hand, eradicated poverty, despite having 11 trillion dollars less than the US, and having 4 times the US' population. While only 35% of Americans are satisfied with their multiparty "democracy", over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their communist party, which proves that a democracy must prohibit oligarchs from running the nation.
The US has never been about justice for all.
