Why Do Americans Not Really Like To Compare The U.s. Government To The Roman Republic?


When that is what it seems it is the most like. Is it because the Romans were Pagen. And many see the U.S. as a Christian Nation. Or is it because some look back at the Romans as being Intollerant, Greedy, Conquerors. Or is it just the Politically Correct society we live in today in which it is a bad move to boast about how much power the U.S. has & it’s influence on the rest of the known World. Cause in the Past most Nations wanted to affiliated with the Roman Empire in some way & would say they were like it Openly in hopes to gain prestige. Yet the U.S. tries to shy away from any comparisons even to the Roman Republic in many ways. Especially by Christians i’ve noticed. I’m thinking it’s because they know that in the Bible there was not such a Good opinion of the Romans lol. What do you think?

Describe In The Most Basic Terms What You Want Your Society To Be And Explain What Stops That From Happening?


A society based on international trade and interdependence that will bring you the wonders of the world but leave you in a state of being removed from the things which impact your life and entire sets of circumstance completely out of your control and in the trusted hands of others you judge competent servants of the public will
A wage that insures a base quality of life acceptable to all available to all — a predefined if your working 40 hours the money you get should at least be able to provide this base minum of a living standard —- or to never be involved and have wages be seen as a thing of pride to be kept secret and never discussed or compared in either amount or purchasing power
Safe and free movement — or tolls to pay for private ussage passageways offered to the public for a cost — The collection of taxes you have no say in — or a strangle hold on what the government can gain revenues from in order to allow the purchases of the people more freedom of choice by economic leverage than the government —
Should pricing things outside the markets ability to pay be used as a leverage against those people to create strangle holds — or commodities undersold in such mass as to bankrupt all smaller or should the rule of law be based more on fighting profiteering and corporate warfare which only ever hurts the market choices of goods while centralizing an economic power
Describe in the most basic terms what you want your society to be and explain what stops that from happening?

Does The Media Have A Massive Influence On Society?


I personally feel that it does, and I seek to attain a better insight. My reason for believing it does is that the newspapers all write in a bias, rather than objective way, about news and events. I don’t know if its done in such a way to appeal to their target market (their customers), or whether the papers are written in such a way to achieve a higher purpose, or both. In the UK, our new “coalition government” is still in its teething stages but it seems like the newspapers are reflective of what this new government stands for. All of a sudden, there is this “uproar” about the numbers on welfare / benefits. I’ve read a few newspapers today and they all attack people in benefits at some point, and some of them make it their main story. I believe this is to soften the blow when our so-called coalition government phases out the benefits system. After all, there has never been such focus placed on the numbers on benefits in previous years. It would seem like the media can be used as a political tool for social reform. I’ll tell you a secret, I live in Northern Ireland. And ever since the leaders of the two contesting groups agreed to try to reach some sort of an agreement, the news stations and papers have flamed any action taken by either side, and crime has dropped substantially. Such action was widely accepted as part of our heritage, culture and lives, even though the majority detested it; and this has changed thanks in part by the media. The wasting young men in our society used to commit crimes because it was the “cool to be bad”, but now that we’ve had a major paradigm shift such crimes aren’t as common as no one wants to be hated by the masses. And as for the papers, why do they broadly state that all claimants are “Workshy” and never express that there are individuals out there who need such a system to survive?
