Future worries. Will the U.S be invaded?

Its a really stupid question, but I'm starting to worry cause our economy is going horrible right now. Russia and China's economies are going up and their starting to become bigger. And their both huge commies and want to become a world power. All our troops are in Iraq/Afghanistan too so we don't have any protection really. I would hate to be taken over by China and have our country go under Communist control. Obama better fix the economy now or some countries will take advantage of our situation.

It's strange that you still believe that these countries are still Communist. China is Communist in name only. No one can own a business under a Communist system . In the old China this wasn't heard of. The gov. owned and controlled all.

The Chinese leaders saw how the Soviet Union fell apart when people rose up against the failed Communist system. They didn't want this kind of chaos to take place in their country, even though everyone in the world had figured out that Communism could never work. So the Communist leaders started offering huge economic reforms without allowing political reforms. They did this to save face and keep political control while they edged out of their stupid system. Now many people own businesses. It's really Capitalism.

This is what the Soviets should have done, in order to keep the soviet Union in tact while they saved their economy, by offering economic freedoms to their people.
There really aren't any Communist countries left in this world. They have become Capitalists who are pretending to be Communists.
Capitalism works. Communism doesn't. The Chinese have become Capitalistic, but not quite democratic as yet.
No danger of war. We have become huge Capitalist trading partners. We need each other. We are a huge nation of consumers for both these former Communist nations.

we'll just muster up our own militia and they will have their own weapons....
think we can muster up to 20 or 30 million.
we got right to bear arms.

but...more realistic answer is...don't worry about it.
World War would be bad for business....
if we ain't buying Chinas stuff...they will be hurting.
Russia is getting their money from OIL....
and the price of that is dropping....
