Actually, no, that's not good enough: why don't we accept our individual participation in the collective spending binge, and voting for people who enabled it.

Regardless, I'm optimistic. I can't foresee every solution to our problems, but I imagine that some inflation, some de-facto devaluation of the $, and the fact the world needs us to succeed, tell me we'll get there eventually. I'm not going to have a coronary hyperventilating over a future that would have to occur without my long-dead a$$.

I'm going to grab a good drink and a good book, and check on the end of the universe occasionaly.
