Quote: (Originally Posted by Bridge of Clay) It's almost like Rome in the acient days. US influences other countries cultures and economy. When a president like Bush decides to disrespect UN, the rest assume since US is so strong, it can do whatever it wants when it wants if US thinks it's better for them and screw the rest.

US is nothing like Rome.
When Rome was in its prime there was the, unheard of, prolongated time of absolute peace. There were no wars and no riots for about 150 years. Absolute military stilness, in the world known to the Rome.
The world is anything BUT peaceful at the moment.
There are many other aspects as well (is US was like Rome it would be waving nukes non-stop). Comparing US to Rome is pretty simple, yeah, but is not correct.
Research the subject, pleaese.
