Let’s think about the change in societal values of Rome, we have a lot in common. The collapse of the economy, the infrastructure, civil administration, political institutions, & the population, must have been felt by all citizens. (the city of Rome's population declined from a million to a few thousand, for example, Blue states migrating to Red states in America) They must have communicated all this amongst themselves, they had to know society was changing for the worse. Yet it's rare to find info verifying this. The closest I found was Orosius, book VII.43). History against the Pagans.
Orosius insinuates that one might think that all this misfortune is happening in response to the recent conversion to Christianity. The empire had gradually become a Christian state over the century prior to its sacking. He does not mention or cite anyone who made that argument, but his addressing it might indicate that there are writers that did. That it was at least conceivable to ancient Romans of that time. It also indicates that he was aware of a decline of civilization of some sort unfolding around him, although he was determined to ignore & deny it.
As in America, Roman citizens were discussing what was happening around them, they saw/felt the danger in their country, but unlike America, they did nothing to prevent it. This is the bright beacon of Freedom; people are waking up & becoming aware & they will act to prevent it. When people hear the govt tell them prices of holiday food was at a historical low. People know what they spent on holiday food & they know it was the highest in history resulting in them not trusting the govt to provide them with accurate facts, they know the govt lied to them (& expected them to believe it) & they know that’s just one lie out of many.
So why flood America with 30-50 million illegal immigrants (no one knows the exact #, who or where they are), give them all the financial aid they need to survive (while American homeless sleep in the streets,) at some point grant them amnesty & citizenship? Now we have answered the question of why this has happened. When it’s time to vote who do they vote for, Republicans who consistently wanted to enforce immigration laws or Democrats who allowed them in America? At that point, America has a one-party rule & the ‘State” has total control of your life. Although somewhere along this process the State must address the 2nd Amendment, they cannot allow citizens to be armed.
History has reached the point where it’s no longer about politics, or $ it’s now about all of us living with the protections of our Constitution, Declaration of Rights & Founding documents. It’s now about preserving America & we have only one option. One who stated on day 1 he will: secure the border, then engage in a massive deportation of Illegals. Regardless of all those candidates who speak of the good things they will do for us, there is only one I ‘Trust’ to engage America’s problems. He has been tested & stayed the course, if he fails America fails & it’s because of us. We only have one choice for the next President & that is the one whom this govt has constantly attacked.
