I ' m considering going to a ROM as well . Which of those do you think is better ? <| sep |> How motivated would you be in a moldy rat infested building that the teachers walked out of in protest ? There is a point of deprivation when giving up is the logical choice . <| sep |> Do those charge in the controller if the controller is off and plugged in , or is it only the play and charge kit that does that ? <| sep |> The US alone can take on all of the world minus China at once with no need for nukes through their sheer numerical and technological advantage in military affairs . If the US fully mobilized , instituted the draft , had no political dissent and prepped for a few years yes . Afghanistan and Iraq did strain the US . It became apparent that only the professional military and the funding they have now was at it ' s limit being in both those places along with their other commitments . If they wanted to capture and hold all the middle east both US and Russia would have to have a few years to prep and institute the draft . Probably drop all social safety net spending and triple military spending .
