In a historic context, a great empire shouldn't self-destruct as young as we are. We've over-reached with war-mongering, we've allowed invaders to overrun our nation, way too many citizens are brainwashed to think this is compassionate and tolerant. And now we've got pols proving to be as bad or worse as those who were in the portions of the Roman Empire that did indeed fall. We don't have to worry about invasion by another military force. We're being destroyed by arrogance and greed. There is nothing okay about it. What happens if we all "take a chill pill" while our enemies from within are ginning up their followers to have a revolution? Hint: Cairo, Damascus, Kiev, Libya,......
How it ends up, who knows?
