Tho I am not optimistic about USA's long term prospects I'm still way more bullish for Sea Power than Land Power, sorry China & Russia
my reasoning is this--oceangoing trade way more economical at large volumes; sea powers will always have financial advantage
-
-
where that money advantage coincides with some sort of Vital Spirit that wants to achieve and succeed, you get a world power
-
I don't see that spirit in much of the Anglosphere anymore but I'm getting that feeling from Indonesia and Philippines...
-
...as well as some stirrings of it in Japan, echoing its pre-WWII drive
-
that said--it COULD come back to the UK, USA, etc, I just don't see it right now
