** '''Point #1:''' Other countries try to achieve independence from the US.

** America had literally conquered the world since the end of the World War, and every single state around the world is now a part of the United Earth.

* '''Downplayed''': The United States is the dominant power over the American continent and the Pacific, but had to contest their hegemony with other major powers like China elsewhere.

* '''Straight''': It's the year 2025. America corporations dominated the global business world and it is virtually unchallenged in its international leadership, American media and technologies gaining wide adoption throughout the world, with more promising technologies to come.

** '''Point #2:''' American foreign policy experts say that the U.S. military has little to nothing to fear about China's growing economic power since China lacks the diplomatic or military power to expand on its territory and so their financial fortune can't be spent on taking up more land.... unless you consider China's aggressive build-up on artificial islands in the Southeast Asian oceans through sand-dumping as a territorial threat. Russia would refuse to share its own land with China, as demonstrated several times throughout history. However, the same thing probably can't be said for American businesses and corporations such as Hollywood's Big Five film studios (Disney, Warner Bros, Paramount, Columbia and Universal), Apple, Microsoft, the NBA and Blizzard Entertainment (the creator of ''Warcraft'' games) who have all displayed behavior of caving in to Chinese censorship so that they can be granted access to the ludicrous markets of China that hold billions of people ready to throw down cash for "American" entertainment (as in made by U.S. citizens but subject to review and approval by the Chinese censors).

** '''Point #1:''' Many civilians from poor Third World Countries, particularly from Latin and South America, want to leave their native homelands behind for a better life in the United States. The mere fact that the U.S. has a more sophisticated network of food markets than Latin or South America (where food is scarce) is a crucial reason, which is ironic since the U.S. imports a lot of food from those lands. A Gallup poll said that one-third of all Mexicans would like to move to the U.S. Despite most American voters opposing illegal immigration, economists strongly support granting citizenship for millions more to come into the U.S. to expand the size of the U.S. economy and GDP since they fill-in undesired low-skilled labor positions such as dishwashing, tree cutting and fruit picking. The immigrants who take these jobs have said these blue-collar jobs pay better than white-collar work in their homelands. Economists state that illegal immigration benefits the economy by reducing the need to offshore cheap labor to foreign countries such as India and China, especially since the native-born workforce of the U.S. is getting too old to work and the US birth rate is well below 2.0.

* '''Reconstructed''': These are counterpoints to the first two points made in "Deconstructed" listed above.

** '''Point #3:''' The United States' birth rate is falling rapidly and well below the replacement rate of 2.0. This has been blamed on economic uncertainty and couples/mothers putting off having children in exchange for preserving quality of life. Economists project India and China to make significant economic gains that the United States may not achieve in the future due to the fact those two have over 1 billion people each. This has put a strain on the U.S. military as well, as recruiters are not able to find enough young men to join the armed forces in any of their branches despite Donald Trump's calls for an increase in the army's size. The U.S. military claimed obesity and sedentary lifestyles are making young men too physically unfit for military service. And on top of this, the U.S. military continues to shrink in size every year since the last heated conflict (which was the Vietnam War).

** Point #1: Other countries try to achieve independence from the US.
** Point #2: China through many economic variables such as nominal GDP and power-purchasing parity (PPP) is showing signs of overpowering the U.S. economy, and that if China becomes the highest global economic power then it could lead to ChinaTakesOverTheWorld.
