Why did the Roman Empire collapse? Invasions by Barbarian tribes. Economic troubles and overreliance on slave labor. Government corruption and political instability. The arrival of the Huns and the migration of the Barbarian tribes.
Mathematically, that which cannot continue, will not continue. Romans probably had the same passivity about their welfare state.https://twitter.com/applnokr/status/1080832515386953728 …

"Never" is a really, really big word. Use it advisedly.

there is no such thing as eternal progress on any issue, but the promise and disappointment of that fact is what sustains media and politicians. Can you imagine a politician running on “Elect me, We have achieved perfection, Welcome to utopia”?

Except that it can probably continue as is for another century.

When you mention welfare Stefan, you forget the worst abusers are the BANKS and huge CORPORATIONS. I'm not sticking up for welfarare recipients, but where I live, a working couple is paid so little, they can get foodstamps. The economy needs fixing, B4 your complaint's r heard.

This will end the way it always does. There's nothing new under the sun. Civilizations always end up in an unsustainable design and change then ensues. We are no different.
