How will the US SW be destroyed?
 

you are allowed to consult Revelations or any other religion of your choice to help in determining your answer

US SW will be destroyed through a combination of mismanagement and IP theft in low-cost geographies.

Oh, I thought you meant software

Deficit Spending?

US Southwest or California? Two different entities...two different fates.

You left out "the US government's own doing."

US Southwest

The SW is already fiscally dead. They just don't know it yet. Sort of like a chicken when its head is chopped off. It runs around and makes a big fuss but its as good as dead. Might as well add a few more benefits to illegal aliens. You can afford it.

You forgot the option "by the legislature".

Clearly the biggest threat is overpopulation. At some point there are going to be so many people down there the whole place is going to tip over.

The real answer: Carpet bagging damn yankees. The ones in Washington DC.

Fire ants, because man those things hurt!

Seems like some of y'all are referring to California. NM, UT & CO are doing fine.

Didn't that almost happen in Guam?

Mothra.

We ain't got no stinkin fireants!

I vote for excessive poopyheads!

U forgot to add to your list

1. Aliens..as in encounter of the 3rd kind

2. TABS

Jerry Brown and his Friends in Sacramento will keep draining us until we go down like Greece and take the rest of the US with us.
But, when the aliens come back 21 December 2012 and see the mess since they left it won't matter.

Artist overload

Calif. is 12th in GDP per capita, so we won't miss you much... SmileWavy

you guys are not into horses, are ya?

S.W. and the rest... the religion of Mohammed.

It would have if Congress hadnt intervened. You can't be too careful about stuff like that.

Guam was tilting because of an illegal alien (species), the brown tree snakes - they tend to congregate in one spot and from a copulatory ball

there were so many of them, that...

Drinking too much cool, clear, water? YouTube - ‪Roy Rogers Clear Water‬‏
Nope.
Parfing it back up. That's how Hendrix went.

Unfortunately I think AZ will follow with nearly the same problems that Cali has gone through. The illegals (and their children born here) are growing in strength and numbers all the time and they're going to get everything handed to them.

The SW has lots of "nothing" space for solar power plants that produce 24/7: Gemasolar Concentrated Solar Power achieves key milestone - 24 hours of uninterrupted supply
Make a dew-water collection feature in those mirrors and it's game on.

After the oil is long gone, the SW will rise again.

Godzilla after he belches up Tokyo.

All those gainfully employed in California will leave and the ones left with their hands out will have no one else to pilfer from.
We'll eventually have to build a wall around it and hire Kurt Russell to star in the movie "escape from the people's repulik of kalifornia".
