Do you sometimes get the feeling that the news is just a self-fulfilling prophesy?
U.S. economy in meltdown
Global climate change worse than expected
Teen commits vicious crime against cat
Where were these stories even five years ago when times were (relatively speaking) good? Okay, maybe five years is a bad example because Bush the idiot had already invaded countries and was doing his level best to destroy the world. How about we go back ten years ago? Everyone seemed more upbeat about things.
Perhaps, and this is just pie-in-the-sky thinking, if we focused on how to fix the problems, instead of screaming like Chicken Little and insisting that the world was going to end, maybe it would all be alright?
I dunno. Its just a thought.
Somehow I can't see how spending another $700 billion is gonna fix a problem where the people involved have already spent more than they have.
