Cyber Altair Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Missed the America 2048 part, however my point stands you can't reduce war potential to 0 even if the country turns self sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrabHelmet Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 If a self-sufficient France would still have been dragged into WWII, why on earth would you think that a self-sufficient America would be magically immune to wars?

έκλειψη Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Way too many people are too lazy or selfish to be self-reliant... I guess Amish folk... Yeah, I wouldn't mind this; but with so many people being as described in the first sentence of this post... And whoever said war risk would be 0% is WRONG. People would just find something to start a civil war over; like The Great Plains region having all the good growing ground or Florida hoarding the oranges. Hawaii wouldn't care.

Yeah' date=' I wouldn't mind this; but with so many people being as described in the first sentence of this post...[/quote']Uhh... Yeah, it's called trade... Anyways... This would be flawed as someone else stated somewhere. For one, the fact that you know you can't leave the country, just makes you feel trapped. Sure, I don't want to leave USA at the moment, but if someone told me I'm stuck here for life, it just makes me feel... Trapped. Again. And that would eventually, no doubt, lead to revolution, rebellion, whatever you want to call it. But I doubt war would start over the fact that Florida has this and Nevada has that... (Oh wait, Nevada doesn't have #$%)Trade, and dispercment. Not a word, but you get the point. Things get moved around.And whoever said war risk would be 0% is WRONG. People would just find something to start a civil war over; like The Great Plains region having all the good growing ground or Florida hoarding the oranges. Hawaii wouldn't care.

Also it's immunity and probability of getting attacked are totally different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
