It may be very difficult for any of us to accept the fact that we, the people of this great nation, are heading towards becoming the fastest-falling empire in history! We have guided ourselves towards losing everything our country used to be. Many nations despise us, jobs have left us, our health care system is broken, Social Security does not provide the security it once did, our borders do not protect us, our educators cannot educate, our families have shrunk, we have no energy policy, we are ruining the environment, and our schools are infested with sex, drugs, and carelessness. We have redefined our military’s job, most of us have no retirement plans, immigration is politicized, poverty has increased, democracy is no longer democracy, elections have become a joke, taxes have become confusing even to those who devise them, our prisons are overcrowded, our patriotism is in question, and our sense of sacrifice has lost its luster.
