Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You make some very valid points. Your description of "Optimists" sounds more to me like people who prefer to spend their time wearing blinders than people who have a favorable outlook or see opportunity (as I understand the definition of optimism).
Call it what you will, I can't argue any of your points. I KNOW this country has caused many problems in the world, that people are suffering and we are wasting and hogging the resources on our planet. I am very grounded in reality and what's going on around me, and always interested to hear opinions.
