the thing is, we have all the technology and knowledge already to implement many changes that could and eventually will benefit the world in major ways. solar power, nuclear power, wind turbines, etc.... all will be used once the oil runs out and the oil companies turn into energy companys that make the solar panals and wind turbines and shit like that. but for now, theres too much profit and tons of oil still left till that shit changes. as for the US, we will be around forever. i dont see the US ever falling... at the most, changing, like all other countries in the world have since the beginning of time. Rome didn't fall, its still there.... just not the dominant power in the world at this time... time will tell.
