The edges of the “Great Society” experiment are now crumbling. It is unstoppable and irreversible. There is no fix but for the whole diseased society to collapse and then to rebuild from scratch. It is the beginning of a second Dark Ages. If you want to know how it all ends, look at Detroit.

The “bread and circuses” phase that preceded the collapse of the western Roman empire took 200 years. I don’t think we have this long.

Tragically, I think you’re right - but I also think it isn’t going to end quickly. The US has tremendous internal societal reserves and it will take some time for even the likes of modern liberals to completely burn them up. IOW, things will totter on for some time yet.
