Opinions of the United States are very low, and have been for a long time--much longer than the Iraq conflict.

Of the opinion that the United States should be able to defend the country against all the rest of Earth's states, and win.

That is the stupidest thing I have ever read here at FR. You are so paranoid it is ridiculous. Pull your head out of your ass.

There is a profound difference between having a low opinion of a country and actually launching a full scale military invasion of that nation. Trust me, that will never happen.

Watch your language.

Seems that the overwhelming consensus on this thread is that the American population is too high, and that large populations are bad. And that countering viewpoints (currently coming from one source on this thread) are shot down.

Respect your opinion and the others expressed here, but disagree with them. A large population has many advantages. As does, occasionally, paranoia (which seems a tad extreme--you don't have a clue about what will happen centuries in the future [if the world even lasts that long]; the rest of the world aligning into a state or organization as a counterbalance to the unipolar United States might not be such a farfetched idea--indeed, more than a few prominent anti-Americans have already proposed such a union).

So, how's this for a proposal:

You can try to be polite and have your opinion, while will also try to be polite and have this one?
