China has over a billion people, mostly ethnically unified, intelligent, hard-working, criminally non-inclined. America has 300 million people who are, in aggregate, a continental multi-national empire, as was the Austria-Hungarian Empire or the USSR.

- rkowalick 18y agoThe only difference between the US and these empires of yesteryear is that we didn't invade new lands to obtain a diverse population. The diverse populations invaded us.
