Americans may still not war but I think they have lost the ability to voice it, through protest or votes. Just like here in Australia. We're complacent, because things have actually been pretty good for a while. Now that things are looking a bit dicey, we find our voice is out of practice and no one knows what to do, or they are too comfortable to want to risk losing what they have.

I always figured complacency would be what undoes a democracy, as leaders and the media got better at keeping everyone entertained while they sell off the economy and wage foreign wars without our tax money but not our consent.
