See Part 2 www.youtube.com Breakdown domestic infrastructure. A bored, undisciplined population, demanding ever more wasteful and outrageous entertainments. Production exported to less developed countries, who then demand a share of the productivity. Rampant inflation eroding purchasing power. Democracy devolving into a totalitarian, suppressive state. Division of the population into segments of extreme wealth and poverty. Hard work and earn no longer provide social mobility. Demands by other countries for self-determination and shared wealth are interpreted as a threat to super-power control. The flow of goods and resources is ensured by faltering services campaigns. Rebellion by subject nations, as the benefits of membership in the empire disappear. Signal familiar? Watch this video and compare it to the evening news. No? Possibly I’m mistaken. Discovery Services Direct ran a three episode documentary on ancient Rome. This is part 1 of a summary of “The Fall of Rome” episode.

“The proletariat are idle, bone idle, and devote their whole lives to drink gambling brothels shows and chariots races. Their temple, their dwelling, their meeting place, in fact the center of all their desires is the Circus Maximus, they talk about nothing else,”. Ammianus Marcellinus – Sounds familiar doesn’t it folks? The working-class citizen has no right to property, due to registration with the state (house and car, etc). We occupy ourselves with TV and gambling and anything but pers. develop.
immigration and inflation ruin rome. same like today.

@DanHalen2100 yup it reminds me of today…. “those that do not remember history are doom to repeat it”…. and that is so right ;(
America is just like Rome instead of careing about world events and education we would rather hear who Tiger woods is sleeping with even though we are at war.

@deepenhancer I will assume you are right because i no nothing of the British government and i thought they were ruled by a King/ Queen
@bw11795 english parlamentarism and liberism was more democratic and more tolerant than many other europeans governements (republic or monarchy) of last decades of XIX century.
@deepenhancer Because Rome was a Republic like us and the British werent.
huge stout lie about constantine but whatever makes you pleased
in the history of creature existence, there has not been one empire who failed economically and in the services stood the test of time.
@SaltonSeaCoolio excellent dream but u should wake up anytime now
All empires, including the US, must fall
The Mighty American Empire will always lead the free World for all eternity!
When humanity leaves Earth, our ships will sport American Flags!
When we first colonize other Worlds, the first flag planted will be the American flag!
America! Commanders in Chief for now and forever!
IF you reckon about American’s government has become to greedy education continues to decline but the government spends massive wealth on large corporation.
Why you american people look so far to Roman Empire to make a evaluation to your politcal/economical situation? Don’t look so far. Just look at the rise and fall of British Empire, ypur next kins of blood from the other side of the Atlantic.
we are following the same path. huge immigration of mexican slave labor, wars, inflation, no money in the treasury, and services rule.
all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight!!!!!!
The rich in Rome signal like those that live in North Scottsdale Arizona.
