Yeah, it's doom and gloom, everything is horrible. Life sucks. And I'm sure you'll vote for the Lord Messiah Obama to lead us to the promise land. I'm not ancient (fifty-four), but I can tell you there is more wealth in this country than ever before. Of course there are rich people and poor people. But the poor here are far better than the middle class in India and China. We have so much more than two chickens in every pot and two cars in every garage. Unemployment and interest rates are historically very low. People are in much better health and live longer and longer. We are on the verge of a revolution in health care involving stem cells and genetic therapy which will make present day medical care seem like blood-letting at a barber shop. If only we would begin to work for energy self-sufficiency by maximizing ALL domestic sources (i.e. renewables, nuclear, fossil fuels and conservation), and controlling illegal immigration to allow only the best from all nations to become Americans, we would be on our way to the best era this nation have ever seen.
