Too bad Frank Zappa is not alive. He used to mock, “Can’t happen here.” Yet there’s a very REAL chance the United States could fail to exist in the second decade of the 21st Century.


The United Soviet Socialist’s Republic (USSR) lasted roughly 65 years. Watch the movie “Charlie Wilson’s War” and you will understand the pressures the U.S. is facing today, the same as the movie depicted for Russia in the 1980s.


Wikipedia states, “… military buildup at the expense of domestic development, economic growth was at a standstill. Failed attempts at reform, a stagnant economy, and war in Afghanistan led to a general feeling of discontent.” Is it speaking of the U.S. or USSR? You tell me. Even worse, we have a depression; caused by our involvement in Afghanistan.


Here’s how the scenario could play out. In 1978, an electrician, Lech Walesa, formed trade unions that struck, bringing cracks into the Soviet system. The Soviets handled them until its involvement in Afghanistan.


You know the U.S. economy will be in shambles for the next two years. We had the equivalent of the 1929 stock market crash when the governments took over banks in 2008. A country that owns the financial institutions goes by the moniker Communist. Not one shot was fired for the U.S. to become a Communist nation.


Now let’s say two western states, one with a Republican senator who lost the presidential election, and another with a Republican governor of a state that is equivalent to the world’s fifth largest economic power, join together and refuse to pay the federal government taxes from its citizens.


When the southern states see this, they too could create their own nation, just like the “Baltic republics and Eastern Europe” (Wikipedia) did to Russia a quarter century ago.


Don’t expect a full blown war against these states that succeed, roughly a hundred and fifty years after the nation’s first succession. This one could be successful.


There was no full blown war against the states that succeeded from the USSR. The same dominoes are in place today for this to happen in the U.S. during the second decade of the 21st Century. Canada could sweep down and claim border states from Washington to Maine. Mexico already owns the southern border states. Most jobs in these states require “fluency in Spanish.”


Obama wanted change for his administration. He may get more than he expected.
