Status Quo Bias

The United States of America is going through a massive reset. It’s painful to watch from a distance, but, if I’m being honest, it’s about bloody time. It’s a funny thing that the man making these changes believes that God saved him, so this work is divine. Well, he might be right.

But will he go far enough? His preferred style of government is dictatorship, since he cannot legally be King. Americans rejected royalty in 1776. Next year will be the 250th anniversary of that Declaration of Independence. When you think of past civilizations, like Greece and Rome, that’s a drop in the ocean.
