maybe. I don't sit around work all day thinking how great America is. I worry
about us becomming less free, and in turn we become less free because we are
less resolute. The American political establishment's love-affair with the
Saudi-ruling class troubles me, the lack of understanding that when high-tech
jobs go overseas to foreign outsourced companies (as has been argued before),
nobody locally will benefit in the US., except the Boards of Directors. Long-term
we wind up with a poorer country. The need for a decent energy policy worries
me, and so forth. So, I for one, do not sit back confidently, with my feet up
and gloat over America and the rest of the world. I see much of the world,
resentful and envious of the US. Whether that envy is rationally merited is
another issue, but thats what I see, or focus on.
Right on, man.
