How long will democracy last in the US?

Question

in the beginning, it was for the people. now, it seems that the rich are getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer. how long before democracy gets corrupt? or is it already corrupt?

Answer 1

Maybe until November. If a Democrat gets into office it will be "Welcome Socialism."

Answer 2

Professor Alexander Tyler ... 1763 ... said that "a Democracy will come to an end when the people learn they can vote themselves money from the public treasury."

There is a 200 year cycle of Democracy which goes like this:

Bondage to spiritual faith

Spiritual faith to great courage

Great Courage to Liberty

Liberty to abundance

Abundance to Selfishness --- This is where we are today

Selfishness to Complacency

Complacency to Apathy

Apathy to Dependency

Dependency back to Bondage.
