So what have we learned in 2 millennia?
Quote:

The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.

- Cicero - 55 BC
Roman author, orator, & politician (106 BC - 43 BC)

Evidently nothing.

We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.

Ok, where is the original source or "hard document"?

Most people don't realize there is almost nothing prior to the 1400s in terms of actual hard documentation.

Some exceptions exist, the Sumerian tablets, the dead sea scrolls (most of which have been locked up by the Vatican) and a few others.

Even much of the Mayan documentation was destroyed via orders from the Vatican.

Otherwise, something from b.c. could have been written by fryer tuck for all we know.
