There is so much that is not accurate or taken in to consideration with this statement. I really do not know where to begin. I am just going to say there are 2 very important things that are not taken in to consideration.
1st. Consider the resource consumption and logistics that would be required to lead an invasion across 2 oceans and to hold the land.
2nd. Consider the total waste of resources to try and bomb even with nukes or biological weapons with the intent of killing all of a population spread across a land as vast as America.
Regardless of philosophical, political, or religious Ideologies, physics is physics and no amount of belief or desire changes it. The real concern should be the breakdown of global trade and cooperation which will lead to stagnation and withering of knowledge. This has actually happened int e past. This will cause a reduction in quality of life and a forgetting of achievements. Their will be greater isolation and so localized pockets of Despots and oppression, but not the global level oppression that people fear.
