Have you seen this article? The writer feels the American population is about to explode.

SSgt Alex Robinson We have shown to be a resilient people and the optimistic side of me says we will make it through this. Then the realist side kicks in and agrees with most of what is said by this author.

What is the old saying; May you live in interesting times. Well we are definitely there.

SSgt Alex Robinson - Staff; The writer does not feel that the American population IS about to explode, but rather that America has the capacity to implode given the right trigger event.

Since the writer doesn't assign a likelihood of any of his scenarios happening, one can't say that he is full of it or speaking the gospel truth (or someplace in between). The article is a series of hypotheticals and that's all it is. Heck, I can see America collapsing if a meteor plowed a one mile wide ditch through the Rockies and all the land between the Rockies and the Appalachians dropped 3oo feet below sea level. I'm sure that you would agree with me that that would likely cause more than a trifling upset to the US (and I'm equally sure that you would agree with me that it isn't likely to happen).

SSgt Alex Robinson Without reading the article, simply referring to the headline, I feel is honestly true. Mind you, this coming from someone who stays away from popular news and rarely comments on anything political, I am absolutely ready for a bomb to explode, metaphorically speaking. Every day I feel like something's coming to a head, and I pray whatever happens, it's for the better of this country.
