My fear is that the masses are not going to wake up to the reality they helped create until it is painfully obvious we went off in the wrong direction. Just playng around with our budget and deficit in Excel it is hard to come up with a reasonable scenario that would fix our problem in twenty five years. If we stay on this tack we'll reach a point from which the turn around will take fifty years or more. I don't know where the point of no return might be. The point beyond which recovery will be virtually impossible. I do know that avoiding that state requires decades of making all the right decisions and operating as a united people with a common set of goals and solid determination. That realization is what makes me lean pessimistic. I see no evidence that suggests we are capable of such unity and focus.
