America was designed to be a republic, not a ruler of other nations. An example to them, a "city on a hill." It has drifted into an empire, presuming to impose its will by power on others such as Iraq. How will it all end?

I fear that America will fall due to internal decadence. As Rome did. A symptom of decay is the flight into irrational mysticism, such as fundamentalist religious delusions. Domestic problems are neglected while resources are diverted to external adventures.

The American people are pacified and distracted by bread and circuses, in the form of cheap or free food and free entertainment (think Food Stamps and television). If Britney Spears shaves her head, this is treated as of it is significant, and Anna Nicole Smith is treated as if she mattered, America has lost its way and is in decay. And when it falls it will take Western Civilization with it.

What can we do? I will not go queitly into that dark night, but rage, rage against the dying of the light.
