In this picture, I wanted to present some of the major elements that some groups see as the catalyst for the decline of a dominant America. The most talked-about crisis involves our financial destabilization, starting with the spike in home foreclosures.

Our answer to our financial problems was to print more money, which weakens the dollar, which will affect our ability to continue our luxurious lifestyles. Next on the list is our fear of another terrorist attack on our soil.

Finally, some believe the moral and ethical differences between our population will destroy the moral fiber of our country and lead to our destruction.
