How nice it would be to be able to go back to those simpler political times.
And know what we know now.
Republics have short lives. Lincoln’s Republic has devolved into a bankrupt tyrannical democracy. Washington can still print enough money to sustain its plan to destroy all nations in the Middle East (except one). But looking at its timeline we are very close to the end. There are wild cards such as financial collapse or total breakdown of civility. But it is going down.
My point is that we (like the previous commenters) may well live to get another chance (knowing what we know) to shape what replaces it. Now is the time to THINK about what replaces it. For me studying the breakup of the USSR (Estonia in particular) is helpful. Our founding documents are absolute TREASURES. I find those supporting the Confederate States of America very pertinent. They fought the same tyrant!
