Question: Is America similar to Rome!?
Rome went from a Republic to an Empire and it slowly started to decline, I think the same thing is happening to the United States!. We're a Republic in decline, we're not a democracy because in a democracy the people have total control!.

Anyway also the Romans were fascinated by entertainment and we are too!. I think if you watch Gladiator someone says that if you focus on entertainment then you make the people forget about the world around them!.

I think that's happening to us!. Remember the huge coverage on Britney Spears last year!? Its all the media could focus, and I think its done on purpose sometimes!. Would like to know your thoughts!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
