Empires comes and goes from the dawn of civilization until now. i.e the Romans, British, Ottoman just to name a few. Most started from corruption within which allowed outside influences to take over. America is currently the world only super power similar to empires of the past which lasted hundreds of years. US is just over 200 yrs old . Do you think we will eventually succumb to the same historical events that killed previous empires.

I don't know that we'll fall due to exactly the same issues as previous empires, but I do believe that all empires eventually crumble. Even if it takes thousands of years to notice the decline, it will still happen - nothing ever stays the same.

People with food in their bellies find a lot of time for leisure which leads to a moral breakdown of society. That brings the rich society(empire) down. Yesterdays mistakes are todays culture and tommorrows laws!

We started on the right track by minding our own business. Now too many Americans think we should be policeman to the world. George Washington was right. We should avoid foriegn entanglements. We are turning the world against us.

The US is not an empire. We do not Occupy Germany, Japan, Italy and others even though we won wars there. These are still soveriegn nations.
