Like lemmings we are going down, I see public discourse confirming my worst fears. W. trying to sell a book instead of facing to problems we have; like the Military Industrial complex taking the US and the rest of the world to a big financial meltdown.
Be afraid, very afraid.
The answer is yes. We do not know what we are doing.
From NYT today:
``We don’t even seem to realize how deep a hole we’re in. If student test scores jumped a couple of points or the jobless rate fell by a point and half, the politicians and the news media would crow as if something great had been achieved. That’s how people behave when they’re in denial.
America will never get its act together until we recognize how much trouble we’re really in, and how much effort and shared sacrifice is needed to stop the decline. Only then will we be able to begin resuscitating the dream. ''
