as US has most economists & sets the rules then yes they will stay biggest as long as they think biggest is best.
eg biggest debt. Biggest polluter (and increase crime & pollution actually increases the GDP)
however infinite growth which underpins this economy is not sustainable, and when the resourses run out the US will use its power to ensure that it is the last country to fold.
There are alternatives, eg Gross National Happiness as used by Bhutan, and life sustaining economic systems such as local exchange trading. but without a great turning from the current paradigm nothing is going to change until it breaks

For sure. California alone is 6th largest economy....The US has to stop buying so much junk from China though, and start creating more goods that other countries want, and reduce its dependancy on oil. The Chinese are so corrupt, that they will never aspire to the same level as North America. The US and Canada should have more restrictions on foreighn ownership of real estate. Any fool with money can buy here. Not the same in most countries.

nicely, if it starts to develop we permit you to be responsive to. Throwing billions on the vehicle marketplace and strapping greater human beings into debt that they can't locate the money for isn't increasing the financial equipment. vehicle sales are anticipated to tank now that that bastard plan is done. Throwing 8,000 at each and every person who buys a house isn't stimulating the financial equipment interior the long term. the 2d that "stimulus" is over, and all and sundry who rushed to conquer the cut-off date is long previous. abode sales will possibly pass down lower back. those short term band-aids at the instant are not fixing the project of a serial financial equipment killer (Obama) is making an attempt to spend us out of a deficit. Obama is using us right into a worse financial equipment than Carter gave us.

the Canadian dollar is finally getting back up to meet the u.s. if the u.s. keeps on as it has (like the Romans) it will completely decay from the inside out then it will be a toss up between china and Canada. IF all the Canadian scientists come back to Canada from the u.s. it will be Canada
