One more thing. Since you deny that the end of the USA is all that far away in your own thinking; tell us when you see the end.

The letters speak for themselves. I can not help it that you are mentally incapable of reading the posts over the years and seeing that few here see any end to the USA. Have someone help you; some are unable to process written words well.

Did you have an IEP in school?

I doubt that exact combination of words have been used. However, after about 5th grade we learn to interpret the meaning of others posts without a pure jarhead literalism.

Oh wait, in your case never mind.

Yes, I agree with your points. I mentioned that we will have a narrow window of time in which to find a better solution.

But how do you get a real conversation going about what might possibly replace the current system? Few here believe that a huge, democratic nation called the USA will not last until the sun explodes. (perhaps it will survive even that they would tell you)

Hans-Hermann Hoppe claims in his book Democracy, the God that Failed, that even a monarchy is better than democracy and lays out a persuasive argument to that effect. Do you really think anyone hear has the guts to read it?

I see the end of the empire coming soon, and I hope we do not elect a knight on the white horse, like the Wiemar Republic did, to save us and "restore respect in the world" as he tries to build a 1,000 year empire. But, the man claiming to fix all the woes of a country trough dramatic and forceful action will be very attractive to the American population.

Ponies for all!

No difference at all. I agree 100 percent.

However, the empire will fall soon and then we will have our chance. We do not need to get people killed in the streets or start shooting federal agents. (even though it is a recognized sport in Tennessee)

What comes when we collapse like the USSR did? Will we want a Putin? Or, will we split apart into 50 (or other number) states who all seek their own way to a better society?

Or even no government at all?

The Obama administration supports extending a controversial provision of the Patriot Act that allows investigators to demand that businesses turn over sensitive financial records, without specifying the investigation's target or why the files are needed.

A company receiving a letter demanding the records is subject to a permanent gag order, prohibited from ever disclosing that the government asked for the records. The law doesn’t even specify whether the company can call a lawyer or appeal to a judge, although the feds claim they always allow a company to obtain legal counsel.

Ain't democracy a grand thing? As they always say, "you are safe if a Democrat is in office".
