The Last Days Of America

The United States is falling victim to fade into history

In the darkest hours of the American Revolution there had to have been Divine intervention that guided General Washington to persevere and eventually triumph in securing victory for the United States. In many instances when all hope seemed to be lost the revolution was saved not only by the shrewd and calculating determination of Washington but a higher power that enabled the United States to overcome adversity under fire. 

In the ensuing years much has changed since our humble beginning. That Divine intervention that steadied the hands of our Founding Fathers has been cast aside by the greed of man. One has to wonder though about human nature. Is it human nature once people are in a position of power to try and gain more control of that power? And, does power always corrupt the individual in authority considering the times of today? Sad to say in too many instances for over 45 years we have been witness to unparallel corruption in our governmental officials. The Divine guidance has been lost in obscurity and this nation continues to flounder in troubled waters. 

The integrity and unselfish character of Washington helped forge what America became. Other men like Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin and John Adams embodied the true greatness of a new nation. As we near the end of the second decade of the 21st century Americas greatness has withered on that vine of lost opportunities. From the last 148 years of disingenuous policies and without the slightest concern for the American public the erosion of Americas greatness is almost complete. The blindness of too many to see and the willingness to accept what is continues to accelerate the U.S. departure from greatness to mediocrity. 

We have forsaken this nation. Too many of our rights have been stripped away. They have been turned into privileges that we always have to pay. This nation has truly lost it's way. The individuals we choose to represent us too many times we have chosen unwisely. And, too many times those that could make a difference have always been denied the opportunity to do so. 

By all indications have pointed to the fact that the last days of America are upon us. When we have an Administration and too many members of Congress incapable of altering the course of this nation is the reality we face today. Gone are the character and integrity that typified the moral compass this nation had over 200 years ago.  

Like all great nations through-out history they have never lasted. A striking parallel between the great power of Ancient Rome is the fact that for a long time Rome was a Democracy, that is up untill the time of Julius Caesar. It was Julius Caesar though that established a prime example of political rule of a  charismatic strongman whose rationale is the need to rule by force, establishing  a violent social order and have a regime involving a strong military role in government. We can see a distinct correlation between Julius Caesar and one Donald Trump. When Julius Caesar came into power was the start of the decline of the Roman Empire.

The similarities between both men is too apparent to ignore. And if Trump remains in power the hand writing is on the wall, sort of speaking, that the last days of America are all readily upon us. We the people have to understand that history does repeat with outcomes very similar to the past. That is unless we have the courage to recognize how we can change the course this nation is on. There is a way to do so. But, the resolve to put in play the reforms to alter the course this nation is on has yet to be displayed. 

Education is vital. For without the knowledge to understand the reforms needed we will remain helpless and this nation will succumb to history. National Economic Reform's Ten Articles of Confederation points a way so that the history of the United States won't fall pray to be another victim of when great nations fall victim of history repeating.
