A society that pays the least to people who protect them and educate their children is a society to be scorned.

I’ve been studying ancient civilizations, particularly the Roman Empire, for decades. We are most definitely on the decline. Post WWII will be our Five Good Emperors. Trump is our Commodus.

Yes, so true. We are a society on decline; yet, the day and time will come when we as a nation will be better than now. I truly believe & have unwavering faith that better days are ahead.
