I figure every day I wake up on the top side of the dirt and do something meaningful to me is a good day. As far as the USA goes? Best times forward or behind? I dunno. Nothing is constant except change.

No kidding. This is probably in revelations as a seal of the apocalypse or something. Oh shit, agreed twice. Headed to a bunker, it's go time. GL all!Quote:

I feel its heading towards a fall, ala Rome like you mentioned, but with duct tape of state machinery and surveillance that denys a broken thing the natural order of falling apart. A roman empire might exist today if they had the same thing. It would be a putrid mess of corruption and chaos, but with no viable method to naturally die unless conquered by invaders. In the modern world, all possible invaders have the same duct tape. I'm not an optimist by any means. On top of it all, once brain/computer links are perfected (Elon) there will be no greater mechanism of class divide and disparity than trying to compete against "those" people, all but making it a social requirement to have one in future generations. Across the charts, the left is creating what they pretend to fear.
I regret to imply that the best days are behind us, but that's mostly because everything seems to be getting shittier and shittier.......in so many aspects of being alive in these times.Quote:
