The Death Of A World Power

Who will be the United States last president? At the rate we are in decline it may very well be the person we elect in 2008. Of course no American wants to think that this could be possible but history shows us that all empires eventually collapse. And all the signs are pointing to it being our turn in the not too distant future.

History also shows us that no empire has ever survived immorality and corruption. Empire after empire all go through the same process. They start off on a solid moral foundation, come to power, and then degenerate into immorality and finally collapse. This cycle has been repeated throughout the history of mankind. What makes this time more dangerous than ever before is the weapons of mass destruction that have been developed. The downfall of our nation could very well bring with it the destruction of all life on this planet. Our weakening as a world power has a number of nations forming new power blocks to replace us.

We are presently being invaded and there is no response to the alarm. Our municipal water companies, our power suppliers, and now our very highway infrastructure are being taken over by foreign investors. By the time we wake up to the fact that this is an invasion it will be too late. We are like sheep being fattened up for the slaughter.

All throughout history every great society has had it's prophets of doom and guess what? They were proved right. Today our newscasters are joining the ranks with the religious prophets declaring our nations downfall. I watch some of the more knowledgeable newscasters just shake their heads in disbelief as they report the goings on of our political leaders. Time and time again they warn us and yet none of their warnings are stirring us to action. We see them as nothing more than interesting entertainers. Even if we believe their warnings we diminish them by believing that these will come about is in the distant future or that someone else will do something about it.
