Because any nation whose establishment is at least partially based on the phrase “the pursuit of happiness” is doomed to come up short in the end. After all, my happiness may very well result in some other person’s misery, and the other person’s happiness may very well result in my misery.
On the other hand, a nation whose foundation rests on the highest of virtues is much more likely to survive in the long run. So I say, let the total demise of America come sooner and not later so we can get an earlier start on creating a new America. Perhaps we’ll get it right the second time around.
