“Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions – everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses” – Juvenal, second-century Roman poet. We anxiously watch our economy, the president is a malign ringmaster, and we are stuck in our own bread and circus – for the same reason.
