The U.S. has had many problems with people drunk driving, killing hundreds of people every year. Money being wasted on big extravaganzas for the famous and even teenagers attend these events, sometimes drinking and doing drugs. The United States Morals are lowering just as the Romans did.



part 2 B. Another problems the Romans faced in their society was debt. They were sending out money to the poor, giving them food and wasting their money throwing parties. The United states does this as well giving the poor Welfare, food, and even places to stay, instead of providing them jobs. The United States is giving money away left and right, putting them into deeper debt.
