Good question. I was having a similar tought for quite some time now. Say all the people on one of the continents die overnight due to some virus. No more Chinese, Europeans or Americans. Would it be good for those remaining? Oil would probably crash to I don't know 5$ a barrel or...

Some people claim we live in a system of mercantilism and have so for many centuries now... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercantilism Not so sure on the accuracy of such a statement but reading a bit about it sure rings a few bells here and there in my view.

Don't worry. God will spare the US bible belt out of gratitude for generations of support towards the nation of Israel.

+1 I've had it with these Israel imperialists.
