Yeah. The government pretends to pay you and you pretend to work. Russia's economy is so far down the toilet that sewer rats feel sorry for you. You may have things like nukes and land and old space equipment, but that's because you were stupid enough to blow your country's resources during the Cold War, leaving only poverty, corruption, and no economy in its place.

First of all, you may have an identity crisis. Having reviewed some questions you have asked in the past, you give the impression that you are from 4 or 5 different countries. You may need to work on that. Or are you just trying to confuse other people?
I am an American but I do not consider America a 'superpower'.
We are just very fortunate to have created a strong country economically, militarily, and politically.
If you consider the number of nuclear weapons to be a measure of a 'superpower' I am sure America could produce more and once more be a superpower. However, having been the only country in the world to use these weapons, we have decided that the use of such horrific weapons is not a good thing. That is why we oppose the development of such weapons by extremists and terrorists.

Russia has a horrible economy. They really ARE a poor country. Yes, Russia is powerful. No, they would not face the US alone. Russia would only face us if China was united with them in it, and China enjoys our trade agreements too much to consider it.

You seem to have an identity problem. In your question you claim to be Russian, an in the answer I saw you give someone else, you claim to be from Iran. Make up your minds, who's going to be in charge.

i think just like north korea, u pipz give all your money on nuclear weapons... totally not cool... america balances everything, from economy to war weapons and defenses... and by the way, america's a lot bigger than russia... yep.. and they hav colonized a lot of countries too.. which by the way is a bad thing for my opinion because they're totally getting a lot of benefit from it. also not cool.. (stick to asia.. ^_^)
