I really wish for a happy, beautiful life.

But I have a feeling that for most of us, over the next couple of years, this might not be something that will come easily.

For some reason, I have a feeling of fear for what's to come tomorrow.

there are at least a few reasons you could have.

[shesnoemu]

Such as...?

[radanax]

the economy? the culture of america as a whole? the progress of global civilization?

[shesnoemu]

Oh well, yeah...

Economy-wise, I don't think this funk will last all that long, unless the Bailout manages to extend it by propping up the Fail. Capitalism needs a good crash every now and then to keep things even.

This is just the changing of the guard. Just try to be there when it all comes back up again! There are plenty of reasons to be optimistic too.

Well, it's definitely going to be the change of the whole system I believe. There is a lot of capital that has been lost (much more than $700 billion). Of course people will get rich off this time, but there are many who will go bankrupt, lose their jobs (I did), etc. I am not certain how things are going to play out.

All I know is that I don't want China to be the leader of the globalized world. They can't even regulate their own dairy farms to prevent toxicity in the food supply. Fucking hell.
