[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3796266, member: 45524"] yeah there was social cohesion during the depression. there is absolutely none of that now; culturally, religiously, demographically. there is no america. it's already gone. a zombie corpse that no one is willing to admit died a long time ago. just read how rome or any other empire fell. it's a death spiral: ->trade value of your population for cheaper foreign labor ->population becomes less native; more foreign ->incoming foreign population either is simply apathetic towards cultural norms or straight up subversive towards them ->after a few generations, no one cares or even knows enough about their homeland to care ->everyone kills each other over resources as the wealthy flee to safe havens ->some foreign power comes in and declares rule the last steps happen fast. anyone is any kind of authoritative rule is at risk. anyone who is seen as in a better position than someone else is at risk. start looking like a hobo, like you have nothing of value. this is already happening as a way of life in major coastal cities. they are already doing stuff like this. leaving things open for thieves instead of trying to create barriers, not going to certain areas, fleeing entirely, etc. etc. [/QUOTE]
