JS,

America's 250? There is a major disagreement on the fundamental role of government. Conservatives regard it as necessary to maintain an orderly society, while a growing number of people are using the power of government to impose radical changes that they believe will correct the inequities of life. But these supposed remedies create greater harm to society in the long term, and really don't solve any problem. Cultural rot leads to societal decline, and that’s a very hard thing to turn around. This has led to an almost complete abandonment of personal and institutional responsibility and accountability, two necessary pillars of a healthy society and effective governance. 250 years is average for an empire. Prepare for the next stage.
