1pg:My concern is that Repugs will mess things up so badly that they will be beyond repair. Then we’ll collapse like every other society has (e.g. Rome, Athens, Egypt, Persia).
We should be so lucky. Rome lasted 1000 years, Egypt 3000 (With occasional changes in management). Persia a little less than 1000 years. The Roman Republic, however, was only about 500 years before they turned it over to the Caesars. Other than those 500 years, all those empires were top-down autocracies. At this juncture we seem to have a lot of people wanting that - they are the ones waving guns. Our republic may not last 500 years. Shoot, may not last 250 years.
