  1. The Roman Empire did not collapse it moved from the West to the east Roman empire. Decline happened in the city of Rome. This decline was based around decadence where men were more worried about going around dressing up as women than being men. They allowed ghettos to form in Rome and turned a blind eye on violence in the city and officials flouted the law. There borders became weak. The Roman city sounds a bit like the democratic party to be honest.

  3. Islam is not the problem. The problem is that America like most of the west has become decadent and has lost focus. American men in the past would line up to defend their country even lucrative movie stars would go off and fight in war. John Wayne was blocked from going to war even though he wanted to do this duties. Today spoiled weak left wing movie stars and an even weaker politics has meant decline but can it be turned around.

  4. Right wing? The Great depression was caused by the democratic party's expenditure that was raised by taxation. This caused the great depression. The recession that happened due to the 29 market crash was no different from previous recessions. The difference was that the great depression came after it due to expansionist policies. Once Eisenhower came to office taxes were cut and the economy grew again and allow Eisenhower to gain a budget surplus.
