Some views on the similarities of America and Rome - The View From My Room - Kentucky.com#storylink=misearch

Where are we today?  Below are listed five contributing factors to the fall of the Roman Empire. 
Would you now agree that America is following in the steps of Rome?  Note the comparison of America to Rome: 
1.    The rapid increase of divorce, with the undermining of the sanctity of the home, which is the basis of society; 
2.    Higher and higher taxes, the spending of money for bread and celebrations; 
3.    The mad craze for pleasure; sports becoming every year more exciting and more brutal; 
4.    The building of gigantic armaments, when the real enemy was within, the decadence of the people; 
The decay of religion; faith fading into mere form, losing touch with life, and becoming impotent to guide it…is the trend on the increase or decrease? 
A CHAIN IS ONLY AS STRONG AS THE WEAKEST LINK!
