We're good, Marty. And if the national debt + the everything bubble causes a major contraction....aint seen nothing yet. True, but sometimes when problems reach "critical mass" those problems are met with more force. Sometimes not. With each new advancement in tech and AI, so many more nuanced complications are added to the mix, and it's hard to SEE those problems, let alone know how to deal with them. Part of my optimism comes from knowing there's "no stopping progress" without a form of tyranny, or amendng The Constitution, or both. IOW, part of my optimism is also just "wishful thikning" if I am honest, cuz I don't want to be in that head space that you seem to inhabit: fearing that (more) bad stuff is going to happen and there's nothing anyone can do about it, if I am reading you correctly.

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
