Jim,

America is rapidly heading for third-world status. Which means we all get
poorer, and those who want to wear own-govt-trashing-hair-shirts to publicly
display their white-Protestant guilt will have to move to China to continue
their practice.

We've been on this downward course since Reagan -- who turned us from the
world's largest creditor nation to the world's largest debtor nation
virtually overnight. The last fumes of the post-WW II Marshall Plan (or was
that Martial Plan?) prosperity have finally evaporated. The ride had its
moments while it lasted.

May soon be time to dust off my panhandling skills.

cheers,
Dan
