What is really informative is all the attention you guys give whether there was a link or not instead of addressing the content itself. Of course I realize disputing the content would be far too difficult for you.....

Do not understand Member ratingsPosted By Greg Shaffer |
Ave ratings..... if someone has only given 5 star ratings then the Average would be 5.....if they have given out 4 ratings for 5 stars and 1 for 2 stars then the Ave ratings would be less than 5....

Do you really think we will all be living at a pre-industrial revolution level going forward, working in salvage and subsistence farming??
Only three examples from memory. I disagree with all of those conclusions. Care to defend them? That would be eye-opening. I am sure that if I studied it, I could find something I agree with in the post, but it would take a lot of work.

No its not totally wrecked yet.....but it certainly on its way and is going to get a LOT worse and not all that slowly. And yes I believe that is a potential future we are mapping out for ourselves. If you dont see that this republic is in decline you are deluding yourself. We will continue to prop the rest of the world up to our own detriment if the current administration has its way.....They have already proven in less than a month that the Constitution and BOR means nothing to them, at least any part of it that restricts them from doing whatever they wish.

But then again, we have not had to face a world war, so maybe the times make the leader?
On the other hand, technology and our still robust economy have provided such ongoing benefits. Think about what we spend our money on now as opposed to 100 years ago. Fancy grills and the like. These are very good times from a historical perspective. Obviously the rich have every creature comfort imaginable. The poor are not starving in the streets as they did just a few generations ago.
Like I just mentioned to Dave, in another thread, human nature makes the past always seems "better," even when it is demonstrably not. Pick any point in history, more than 100 years ago, and try to imagine the living conditions for the rich, the poor, and any middle class living then being demonstrably "better" than what we experience now.

Not to rain on your usual rationalizations James but nothing you said convinces me I am reading things wrong.....Lets revisit this conversation in 6 months and see how the cookie is crumbling then
