(Cross-post from The Bad Place) I suppose we're doing this again. This is incorrect: the Roman army relied heavily on non-citizens throughout nearly the whole of Roman history, including periods of its greatest success in the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC, when Rome came to dominate the Mediterranean.1/

An Elon Musk tweet, claiming that "Near the fall of the Roman Empire, the Roman Army also increasingly relied on non-citizens," a claim that is, at best, deceptive.

Not now, but soon. Maybe next weekend? I expect Joe, Kamala, Pete, Gov Roy Cooper, and Josh Stein to be choppering into Asheville NC. Bringing with them a combined State/Federal commitment of at LEAST $12 billion, and a solid plan to use toward rebuilding western NC communities and infrastructure.
