What will be the straw event for the death of the USA?
History has recorded a straw event that occurred in various types of governing and Nations that led to their downfall. For example, the idiom saying:“The straw that broke the camel’s back.”
Idiom Meaning (Merriam Webster)
: the last in a series of bad things that happen to make someone very upset, angry, etc.
The Purpose of This Post
Is to relate an ancient proverb about how a straw event can lead to a revolution in history. For example, the Boston Tea party was an event that sparked the American Revolution.
King Solomon
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose (event) under the heaven: (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
Excerpt
and a time to every purpose (event) under the heaven; to every purpose of man that is carried into execution; for some are not, they are superseded by the counsel of God; some obstruction or another is thrown in the way of them, so that they cannot take place;
What’s My Point?
I made the following comment in a Citizen Tom post on the subject of BLM in regards to recorded history of final straw events.
Tom,
BLM is promoting socialism or wealth redistribution. History has recorded the numerous times when the wealth divided nations and revolution took place.
The same scenario is now festering in the USA mainly the event or result of outsourcing manufacturing jobs and opportunities for the poor to become middle class rather than poverty and afford homes.
Trump recognized the need and desire by voters to return jobs to but, in my opinion, his main opposition is a concentration of some very wealthy people who have made a fortune by buying for $5 an apparel for example made in a foreign sweatshop country and reselling it for $50.
Frankly, in history, an event occurs that triggers revolution.
Sadly, during Trump’s term he has experienced the resistance of the power groups than own the press, the death of a black man on national TV, and COVID-19.
If he loses the next election, BLM will gain a foothold of power at the National level, in my opinion.
The present ultra-rich will get woke when that happens. What economic event may occur as a result of the 2020 election may be an even worse event for everyone including the ultra-rich.

My point is while faith believers believe God has to the power to control every event that mortals choose, no one knows for certain what or when God will intervene to prevent the event or allow for the event to take place.
In My Opinion
The present wealth gap and political divisiveness coupled with the sinful changes of morality that have occurred over time could be the next final straw event to take place in history of the USA experiment in freedom and democracy.
If interested
Read the Source links below. In particular the link to an article in the Chicago Tribune on the subject of selective news to add credence to my comment made to Citizen Tom.
You Decide
Should we be concerned as voters that the 2020 election may be the final straw event to lead to the death of the USA?
Will 2020 Presidential election be a “woke “or “final straw” event in USA history?
Do you as a faith believer that this following statement?
“We must freely choose to bring order to our broken hearts if we want true freedom, and we must choose to not allow any one or anything to rob us of that God-given freedom.”

Fine post Rudy, i was reading about Solomon and the temple lately, great character, but the straw that broke the camels back was no heavier than the one before, as for what will happen next, imagine the knock at the door, and each time you open it, there is a petitioner at the door, someone seeking justice, Jesus says, eventually the widow will have justice, as the judge will say, she wont leave me alone, Isaiah says it too, the sentinels are told to remind God of his promises, to ensure His will is applied. In a nutshell, as the mountain of those with Broken Hearts and dealt with unjustly mounts up, it’s the volcano moment waiting to happen, then the new creation happens, it’s written in Esdras, revelations, no mystery, as regards helping yourselves, well, helping others is always going to enhance your prospects with God, it’s that simple, be blessed, may you find leaders of wisdom soon over there, maybe Joe biden and his running mate, the Lady, is the answer to your problems, in the short time. amen.

Thanks for your comment. I agree for a need to find leaders with wisdom. Not too sure Joe Biden is the answer though. Sad that in a Nation of 350 million there is such a need for wisdom in leadership.

Your first sentence is profound in my opinion.

Rudy, patience is the sermon being preached everywhere, and that patience will bring about new minds and new hearts, and in this time, Gods people will shine like light, while the usual voices shut up, the only words they issue, all the problems, never the solutions, be blessed, may Chicago and all the country find that inner wisdom so long silent, amen.

I have hope that the one’s purportedly being oppressed are actually better off and know it in their hearts and will not support the socialists, sadly though many may not understand what will be lost if they do. Our representative republic stands in the way of the globalist’s agenda. I pray we can keep it
