Ancient Rome declined because it had a Senate; now what's going to happen to us with both a Senate and a House?

Summary

This quote points out the concern that having both a Senate and a House of Representatives, like in ancient Rome, may lead to a decline in our society. The implication is that having two separate bodies that hold legislative power can lead to inefficiency, disunity, and a lack of coherent decision-making. By comparing it to the decline of ancient Rome, the quote suggests that history may repeat itself if we don't address the potential drawbacks of having dual legislative chambers and find ways to ensure effective governance.
