Pat Buchanan wrote of suicide of a superpower.

Australia’s unofficial national anthem, Waltzing Matilda, is a song about the suicide of a marginalised man persecuted by heartless authorities.

Australia sings of choosing suicide over persecution every chance it gets.

Banjo Paterson started writing the lyrics in August 1895.

I had another go at the first verse today:

Nothing much has changed.
