Have Post-2000 events begotten the irreparable downfall of The United States?

[GammaGlobulin]

Dear Fellows,

 

In my view, America (The United States) seems irreparably FKD.

 

We have seen this happen in history to other Banana Republics, south of the border.

 

But now, is this same thing happening to the USA?

 

What might have led to this downfall?

 

Is it the lack of a strong democratic government in the USA?

 

For example, has the USA, after privatization of government sectors, become dominated by huge conglomerates, to the extent that American Democracy no longer exists?

 

And what about the Little Man?

Who protects Him?

Nobody?

 

Is it now true that America has become a place where multinational corporations both create laws AND enforce laws?

 

And, is fair competition between companies in the USA…now dead?

 

Say what you might about China, but has China now become what the USA once was, in its heyday?

 

And, what will it mean for America when America is completely run by Corporations?

 

Is it true that ONLY Milo Minderbinder might know?

Sure.

You guys all know Milo Minderbinder, don’t you?

The man from Catch-22 who loves a DEAL?

 

When Minderbinder runs the USA, then corporations will do what they like.

 

Oh, wait….

Minderbinder is already running The United States…

We forgot.

 

Best regards to Milo…..

We love you Minderbinder!!!!

Yes, it is gone.

They had a good run but the growth was driven by immigration.

Nah. The rot set in during Vietnam war. That evil war rent the soul of the US and the 1% jumped in, occupied the power spots and have been ruining the US ever since, IMO.

 

Empires don't end suddenly. The end comes slow and quiet like a thief in the night.

The entire West is broken. Damaging left wing ideals and feminisation of politics, unchecked immigration, the greed of the boomer generation, and meddling with Middle Eastern countries are mainly to blame imo.

On that I agree.

IMO wokeness isn't the cause of the downfall of the west, it's a symptom.

 

While some will disagree, IMO the end began when the west retreated from empire building and became nations without a purpose, and have been circling the downpipe ever since. It's a genetic imperative for humans to conquer, and when we stopped doing that we were going against our genetic nature. China is in the expansion phase and is ruled by a ruthless dictatorship, which is what humans do as a genetic imperative. The strong survive, and the weak go to the wall.
