• A comment on Conversation: The American Empire Is on the verge of collapse. If so will we see a new empire emerge after its collapse?

• A comment on Conversation: Space Exploration really Needed?

  Jun 13 2011: Well not many things today are fantastic for our economy, but the money spent should be put onto knowledgable projects such as space exploration. This advancement could do wonders for our country, not only educational but also make us prosperous. Innovation is what we need to get us out of economic problems..

• A reply on Conversation: how would the world be like if Google was never invented?

  Jun 13 2011: I do see you point. But I Google is apart of our "daily routine." What other company can beat out that? Why would someone else want to beat out Google, spend their money and time, when in the end people are going to go to Google. Its the same thing with other popular things.. For now Google is our favorite pair of jeans..

• A comment on Conversation: Are politicians having a positive influence on a younger voting audience by their increased use of social media sites?

  Jun 13 2011: I think these politicians are getting a lot more exposure, but if the youth doesn't know what these politicians are really doing for our country, what help does that bring us as a country? I don't think its a positive nor effective thing to do.
