They never do anywhere.
Revolutions and civil wars are common, indeed universal; empires and large nations always break up.
Compared to most European countries, we are waaaaay overdue. Four empires broke up after World War I. The Japanese Empire was broken after WWII, and Germany was split into parts. The Soviet Union broke apart in 1991.
Why you think this country can survive the Obamonation reaction to the Bush catastrophe, I don't know. Russia sure didn't survive the Czar's casual decision to throw his people into the meatgrinder of WWI (nor did the Czar or his family: they were all shot). Revolution, communism, 30 million killed by Stalin, WWII, breakup.
That's what happens when rulers casually go into wars they lose. And usually it's what happens with the NEXT guy that is worse: the Czar made the bad WWI decision, but it was Lenin and Trotsky that paved the way for Stalin and communism. Same deal with Bush, and here comes this fool Obama who already hates America, especially whites.
I think we're in a far worse situation than people realize.
Sounds like a good topic for another thread.
If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin
Imagine what good we can do if we all joined together, united as followers of Christ - M. Russell Ballard
