Every time I hear someone saying it will take "a long time" or "years" or "a generation" to undo the mess we're in, I think, "Have you no understanding of history?"

Unless something stops this train-wreck now - and I don't see anything like that happening - you can kiss it good-bye. Forever.

An understanding of history? In the United States of Amnesia? In the midst of economic shock therapy designed to make people hand over all their civil rights and money to their betters?

This is Rome, and the Visigoths are currently fighting our wars, not for us, but for those who would rule us. The day will come when we can not or will not pay our mercenaries what they feel they're due. That will precipitate the inevitable consequences of the road we're on.
