It's at times like these that it's comforting to recall that lots of the good stuff from the Greek empire was preserved in the Roman empire, lots of the good stuff from the Roman empire was preserved in the Byzantine empire, lots of the good stuff from the Byzantine empire was preserved in the Moorish empire and lots of the good stuff from the Moorish empire was lifted during the Crusades by the europeans and played a part in the Renaissance.

Additonally we may not be that far gone yet, We did survive the Guilded Age without becoming a banana republic. I wonder if GW knows that McKinley was shot.

Yeah, so not everything we (as a culture) have accomplished will go to waste. But it'll still suck mightily for the generations alive during the fall.
