I too wonder if it's possible whether the "next generation will always be better off than the last" paradigm is no longer operative here in the US (I live in San Antonio). I find it hard to know whether the feelings I often have that shout "Yes!" are valid, or instead perhaps simply trite, expected, and typical expressions of disapproval that the older generation has ALWAYS had regarding everything that came after their golden years ("When I was a kid ..."). Have you folks ever read that quote from some ancient Greek philosopher dude that complains about the ruinous path youth and society was on, guaranteed to result in the destruction of all that was good and civilized? (Actually, come to think of it, I guess the Greeks did kind of lose out in their defining struggles - maybe he was right!).
We're all in the same boat nowadays, and unfortunately it doesn't have a high-mileage engine. Most of us are unhappy with the direction of the country (at least the ones that answer pollsters are). My guess is that reading Harihead she loves this country no less than anyone, and sometimes it comes across a bit negative, but it's hard to always be happy like me, it just means your'e shallow. Anyway, Harihead, if you wear a flag pin, or talk about freeze-dried babies, it will all be OK
