I think the
wheel is turning. The USA has had its turn on top and
is now on its way down. In a while it'll be all "bu-but what
happened? we used to be number one!". Then they'll bottom out and
start the long slow climb back up again.
That realization will never happen,
though. Most people here are
quite content with being sedated by TV, sports, beer, and the
escapades of Linsay Lohan. "I don't want to think" is the mantra
here.
Sure...now. My "a while" is probably on the order of a century, maybe
two.
