We have lots to concern ourselves with, but this one is hardly the paramount issue facing us.
Indeed, if we take care of the other business we need to attend to such as:
1) energy independence
2) population control
3) food and manufacturing production capacity
4) health and quality of life issues
other potential threats against us will never materialize.
If we let these thing go ignored, we will face all manner of hardship and deprivation; and sovereignty issues will be the least of our troubles.
If we continue to weaken ourselves by not attending to business (as we have not for the past 30 years), we'll give up the national ghost.
Nothing will be taken from us, we will simply have rolled over and become an impoverished nation; sovereignty won't matter because they'll be not much left to hold on to.
A nation that builds nothing, makes nothing, imports its necessities and exports its agricultural produce is the very definition of undeveloped. No country should be willing to do to itself what we have already done to ourselves.
Maybe we will wake, get some luck, and get back to being a first rate economy with a first rate production capacity and more limited need for imports. Thankfully I'll not be alive long enough to see what will happen if we don't straighten some things out.
