Late Stage Republic: How Empires Collapse

 I will come back and write words, but for now, watch this 7 minute clip I put together:

Joe Biden and Janet Yellen asked if USA can afford more war.

I'm reaching a point in my life where I'm beginning to not care about politics and current events. I'm the only person in my circle of acquaintances (with one exception) who cares about any of this stuff, and I always hear people say, "the only thing that truly matters, are the people in your life." So why do I care? Someone recently asked me this very question and I struggled to answer it. In the end, I guess I don't care. But I get bored very easily, and learning all this stuff is interesting to me, so I think maybe this has been my way of battling ennui? The back of my first book of poetry has this quote: "The most terrifying word in existence is ennui: A gripping listlessness or melancholia caused by boredom or depression."

So, what's my point? My point is, I don't feel like writing an entire blog entry about the American Empire collapsing. Nobody cares. I don't even care. I think I'll write a fictional short story instead.

Bye.

Okay, I'm back. I've decided to create a running list of reasons and events, that I feel, support my thesis of America empire undergoing a collapse. Here is my list thus far, and I will continue adding to it as things ping my brain or new events occur:
