Yeah: they progressed from republic, to empire, and then collapse due to
loose fiscal policy and over-extended military adventurism.  Bread and
circuses, man, bread and circuses.

History doesn't repeat itself -- but it does rhyme.  While things aren't
quite THAT bad, yet, there are definite similarities. (Looking at
President "I Won"'s appointees, czars, and assorted insane bureaucrats,
I'm reminded of Caligula's horse.)
