I hate to say it, but it seems to be too late. I predict growth in discontent and discord, but little else ahead for the American experiment.

It's a shame to see such golden opportunities squandered, but humankind will have to adapt to the lessons from the fall of two Cold War superpowers if there's hope for a peaceful and prosperous future.
