    Interestingly enough the preeminent historian on the topic, Edward Gibbon, The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, believed that Christianity played a large part in the fall of the empire. Here is an interesting essay on the subject of Gibbon's conclusions.

    The selling out of the American working class is going to largely responsible for China and India becoming the economic super powers in the world while the USA and Europe fall behind. The fact that they will finance it with our money is the irony of it all.

    The love of a buck by the entrepreneurs killed the goose that laid the golden egg. (American manufacturing) I would say buy American the job you save may be your own but the cow is so far out of the barn that there is little point in closing the door now.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
