Some people saw all this coming back in the 1960’s.

Amazing....brilliant! Kudos for The Honorable Millard Fillmore Caldwell! He died in 1984, was governor of Florida 1945-1949. He was obviously a scholar.

Kipling saw all this coming back in 1919

http://www.kipling.org.uk/poems_copybook.htm

...On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: “The Wages of Sin is Death.”

...In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: “If you don’t work you die.”

...And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

While the ageless wisdom of Cicero regarding the eventual corruption of government is true, it would do very little good to translate it into ebonics and spanish, and airdrop it over US cities. Those who have their eyes open and understand the world around them are being preached to by the choir, and the ignorant masses pandered to, and who are destroying the nation, egged on by a cabal of criminals, simply don’t care. They are too stupid to care. And therein lies the real problem.
