Is America Ending up like the Roman Empire?
They thought they could blend all races and creeds together and all that happend in the end was the destruction and the end of the Empire on the whole, racially and also culturally. They became too liberal and relaxed about their moral standing and in the end destroyed themselves in the process just like America is now with its arrogance and supercilious disregard for normality and sensibility.
A high end culture reaches a point then implodes and what we see now in America with its high immigration rates is exactly what happend in Rome and will end up happening here too.
Answer:
Rome fell because their slaves had more in common with the invaders and took up arms to overthrow their captors. While we don't have legal slavery here, we definitely do have poor living conditions for the poor and working class in this country. Unchecked immigration added more teeming masses to the poor and working class. It allowed a mass influx of people from a different culture and language without any requirements for them to adapt and integrate. This created unfair competition for labor and charitable resources meant for our own already existing citizens. When that was ignored, it moved up the economic ladder until it started affecting jobs that paid a living wage. Allowing this to happen, ignoring the impact on our citizens with fewer resources, placing blame on American workers rather than politicians, employers, and border security, and denying services to displaced workers has created a divide at the bottom which is threatening to rip this country in half from the bottom up.
While there are some differences, I do see the similiarities between what's happening to us and what could happen to us with the fall of Rome.
As the greatest country ever, then yes we are like them.
I don't think that...Mainly due to the fact that America isn't an empire...Everyone in America is here, part of the nation, willingly.

I'm afraid that plan has been tweaked a little friend. This time they are planning something different. Willingly through misinformation perhaps? Show them the supposed American dream? Just right before you smash it for them. Games up yoyo. And YHWH help them if they actually have real intelligence, motivation,self discipline and knowledge. That just won't work in this supposed democracy. Time for ppl to wake up. We need to restore our Constitutional Representative Republic. Unless of course you truly wish to remain a slave?
I looked up apartment openings in Rome!!! why don't you move and take up residency!!Adios as my illegal friends would say
Yes, if you get fat, lazy and stupid somebody who's hungrier will take you out. The Romans wasted massive amounts of time and manpower fighting each other, there for making it easier to be defeated
yes, we have never been able to learn from history.
They say if you don't learn from the past you are doomed to repeat it......guess humanity is going to take yet another trip down memory lane.
Yes, it is. Good points that you made.
History repeats itself.
Don't know, wait a few hundred years and then tell me if we are close.
Yes, we are well on our way
But unlike the Roman Empire, the U.S. does not terrorize people into following its ways. People are free to join; I don't care what any of these "evil government plot" conspiracies say. Most of the people who follow such things are either teenagers, or they have no experience outside the country.
Still, you're half right (on my opinion). There are many traits we share with the ancient Roman Empire...
There are a lot of parallels, and now Bush wants to bring foreigners into the army. (I don't mean legal residents who want citizens, I mean Joe Blow living in a different country with no ties here.) That is how Rome fell, of course.
