Cicero 55 BC : We Are Rome

After reading this from 2000 years ago, think about what we have learned since, and what kind of future we can look forward to in the next 2000 given what happen to Rome!
 
"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."
 
Cicero , 55 BC
