back in January of 2013, I warned that we seemed to be seeing the sort of collapse that overtook the Roman Republic (and later, the Roman Empire) and Weimar. Looks like I was spot-on.
The latest episode, with the President of the United State essentially donning the crown of an Imperator, and proceeding to rule by decree, is the sort of thing I never expected to see in this once-free land.
It ws a nice Republic, while we had it. But that is, quite clearly, well in the past.
