The fall of a society often begins from within. Now a degenerated and directionless
population looking for thrills explores and plays all sorts of games. The liberal
environment allows them to recklessly stretch the limits of safe behavior with no fear of reprimand. The same attributes that helped the rise of civilization also lead to its downfall i.e. whereas the resources were used efficiently in the beginning are in the end grossly misrutilized. People begin to castigate their own society. In such monotonous excitement seeking society, any failed, dissatisfied person could seed the down fall of society, while an eager and vengeful neighbor ever willing to fish in the troubled water quickly moves in and occupies the vacuum. Most shocking scenario turns out to be the near fatal inertia of a mighty
war machine completely bogged down in its own bureaucratic mire, while a puny enemy systematically slaughters the mighty force.
Are we witnessing signs of fatigue in American society? Difficult to say but there are enough indicators to set the alarm bells ringing. The frequent use of gun by school
children, the mayhem exemplified by American
movies and the grand sounding and visually appealing projects their establishment is selling the nation like the NMD should cause worry. The arrogance of invincibility is deceptive but there are too many variables, though, to definitely suggest irreversible decline of American society.
There is a saying, "History repeats itself, first as a
tragedy and .... " I would like to add my own maxim to this "... every time with a different paradigm."
This time the fall will come due to economic collapse. Have we forgotten the Soviet Union!
