Roman Empire vs American Republic

The Roman rulers gave the peasants bread and circuses to keep them occupied and less aware of the problems the Empire was suffering... and they fell for it.

Today, our rulers give the peasants beer and televised sports (I'm looking at you, NASCAR and pro football) to keep them occupied and less aware of the problems the Republic is suffering... and most are falling for it.

Discuss.
