That Howard’s “shows” even get on the public airwaves should consternate every observer who has read that British classic “The Decline and Fall of the American Empire” ... We are going through Rome’s pattern of bread and circuses for the masses, sexual depravity, excesses, and pop “culture”.

Even the US military now is used as a path to citizenship by the democrats - just like the Romans used citizenship and gold to man their ranks with barbarians to fight the Germans.

“The Romans used citizenship and gold to man their ranks with barbarians to fight the Germans.”

Yeah, and we all know how long that worked out well, don’t we? As a lifetime avid studier of the Roman Empire, I’m endlessly amazed at how our own actions mirror those of Rome, and not in a good way...
