The United States will go to war to distract the citizens (serfs) from political and governmental mismanagement. In doing so, people forget their own lot, dont bother with civil unrest and rally behind the fools running the show. In Australia when the chips are down for the ALP, they re-stoke a conversation about a republic, which would do nothing for anybody other than a small group of elites. And oh what a republic it would be; give the Queen away for a Union appointed Emperor- JOKE! Lets talk about ALP fiscal mismanagement, than in time will lead to unemployment, inflation and a tide of other unintended consequences that just make things worse.
In some measure I can respect the US as war takes preparation, technological toys of terror and some effort. In Australia we currently have a kakistocracy.
Kakistocracy (n)~ Government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens.
