the GDP per capita is only lower because the government is giving them a house, car, etc. the debt is also a bigger issue than you think if we are planning to keep our position as the superpower.

China will be the superpower of the 21st century. Despite the U.S currently having more political power, China's economic, and military positions leave them in a great spot to be the next superpower. The U.S holds a good position being the superpower of the world and also has more allies giving America more political power yet this will not be enough to keep this position in the future. because of china having a bigger growth rate and being in less debt than the U.S , China's economy is pushing them towards being the next superpower. China's military also has a step on the U.S. A result of its giant population, china has 5 times the man power of America. they also have more reaching military age which will lead to another overpowering military in the future.

I agree, If we did not do this more Japanese and Americans would have died and that is all we need to know.

It was not unnecessary. In the long run it saved lives and anything that saved lives is not wrong.

The U.S was right, or at least justified to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki because this was after loosing about 418,000 military and civilian lives while these attacks where worth killing about only a quarter of that to prevent thousands more of U.S military lives from being taken in invading Japan.

They can but they probably won't because Kim Jong un understands the risk of losing power if he preforms such actions.

I disagree with the statement "North Korea is soon to a break through in technology" North Korea is behind "modern" technology by approximately 20 to 30 years which is highly unlikely to come back from any time soon.

According to many experts, Kim Jong-Un just wants to maintain monarchic power and given that objective he would not want to start a war or cause any conflicts with the United States or any of its allies because this would surely result in military action aimed at overthrowing North Korea's government.

Without these veto powers the world would be a more unstable place. These are all very powerful world leaders and without their full input, smaller, less relevant country's would have a bigger input on big issues
