"What prey tell is the "critical mass" ?"
The move from a unipolar economic world to a bipolar and then (in the future) multipolar economic world.
Not too long ago, the EU wasn't much compared to the US, but now it is, for instance (the critical mass being somewhere between 55% and 75% of US GDP). This has benefitted the US greatly over the last 7 years.
We can expect either or both China and India to make a similar run over the next century.
