Glenn, thank you for that beautiful story. I have been sober for over 17 years now and I still go to meetings because you don't get stories that good eating salad. I faithfully read you because you don't get stories of love and gratitude being a Marxist.

Hope you're right about the green shoots; there's certainly plenty of fertilizer!

Have we made mistakes? Yes, of course, but there's a reason, despite all the harping critics, that millions around the word WANT to come here. Happy Independence Day to all my fellow citizens.

Green shoots, but what kind?

The rate of change we're experiencing on every level is disorienting, even to those with the most secure footing.

We're heading for a global clash of fundamental principles.

Those who base their operations on the realities of nature and human nature will prevail.

America (and most other western nations) are racing in the wrong direction.

But it's not a new cycle; we see it every 2,000 years or so.
