U.S. will become No. 2 economy by 2030, study says
U.S. dominance in the world will end before 2030 -- the nation will
become the second-biggest economy, behind China -- but the country will
benefit from energy independence, according to a study by the National
Intelligence Council. "There will not be any hegemonic power," the
report says. "Power will shift to networks and coalitions in a
multipolar world."
