Guess what? "Rome" is not collapsing. It's getting healthier and

That was Constantine 1, right?



You can not know. You did not get a Liberal arts degree.

Roman history was a high school thing but they do have these things
called books. You don't need a college ID or anything to read them.
These days they are online.

Actually Constantine was a thought provoking reference. He was emperor
at a time when Rome's finances were in the crapper. They were
monetizing their debts using bronze money with no real fiscal basis.
Their famous infrastructure was fraying around the edges. They were in
the midst of a political divide that split the empire. He had is own
Persian misadventure (AKA Iran) and the government was taken over by
Christians.

I thought Harry might get it ;-)


But, but, but according to at least one poster, you can not know anything
without a Liberal Arts degree except for trade school skills.


I don't think that is the case, but...it seems true enough for you.


You do not know enough to keep from going bankrupt. Twice. Maybe a
little trade school would of helped.
