AMERICA FOREWARNED! Watch Out For the 1980s - Gene H Hogberg - May 1983

Gene H Hogberg

Like an individual, what a nation sows, it also reaps. And America will soon reap the whirlwind-a lesson for all the world to see. Not long ago, the United States of America was the unchallenged leader of the Western world. Respected by friend and foe alike, jealously admired by many, a rich, dynamic America for years set the pace and provided the model for world economic development. Militarily, a string of alliances worldwide, backed up by U.S. muscle, contained adversary forces. How times have changed! Today, America's traditional heavy industries, such as steel, are afflicted with low capacity, high unemployment- and often, staggering losses. The United States is losing the race against the aggressive economies of East Asia. In matters of mutual defense, America's leaders almost plead in vain for NATO partner countries in Europe to continue to trust in Washington's faltering leadership, challenged as never before by the burgeoning military might and political leverage now exercised by the Soviet Union. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
