Anyway, has anyone got numbers on the current American population and the percentage of world power (electricity, fossil fuels mostly) they consume? I heard something about some insane ratio between the two but I never pursued it...


Say the US has around 250-300 million. It uses 60% of the oil in the world and has 4-6% of the population of the world.
Got Ether?

It's a fact.  Stupid people have stupid children.  If you are stupid, don't have sex.  If you insist on having sex.  Have sex with animals.  If you have sex with an animal.  Make sure the animal is smarter than you are.  Just encase of some biological fluke you and the animal have offspring, they won't be as stupid as you are.   One more thing.  Don't assume the animal is protected.  If the animal has a condom, or if female some interuterian device, insist they wear it.  Help stop this mindless mindlessness.  Keep your stupidty to yourself.  This message was brought to you by the Committee of Concerned Citizens that are Smarter than You are.

I thought it was something really severe like that. :(

It's so... it makes me very upset. "The needs of America come first,"... One day, America... well, it's very possible that this nation will swallow the entire world. :(

I don't think so... they're making a lot of bad moves lately - internally, not even considering external policies. History will tell the true consequences of the 911 attacks...

Sadly, the US still has a good hundred years of juice left, at the bare minimum. And it's only gonna get worse in that time...
