(79,057 posts)All of organic life on Earth either grows of decays. This includes everything from a single cell to a human empire. That is one of the mechanical laws of nature. It is pathetic to think otherwise with the USA. More, the history of empires has a frequent rise of a sociopath to social-political power, with a gravity that attracts ASPD people to the closest levels. The sociopath provides license for them to do the cruelest things possible to "others."
There is only one alternative in our case today. The only thing that can change the mechanical is human beings, by consciously reaching higher ground. That is the only evolution for humanity is the evolution of our consciousness. That growth counters the decay, and uses it as the compost to grow a better society.
