Robert Heinlein had a point in his book “Starship Troopers” (?), recently a movie, part of which is: Those who’ve personally invested in a society will work to see it go. If it’s open to quite literally everyone, especially illegals, its demise is immanent.

Yep...

Spell check is our friend. It’s “imminent”.

"Bread and Circuses is the cancer of democracy, the fatal disease for which there is no cure. Democracy often works beautifully at first. But once a state extends the franchise to every warm body, be he producer or parasite, that day marks the beginning of the end of the state. For when the plebs discover that they can vote themselves bread and circuses without limit and that the productive members of the body politic cannot stop them, they will do so, until the state bleeds to death, or in its weakened condition the state succumbs to an invader--the barbarians enter Rome."
(Robert Heinlein, To Sail Beyond the Sunset, pg. 227)
