Fareed Zacharias: Are Our Best Days Behind Us? |

No, this article is not as despairing as the title indicates. Once again, Zacharias reminds me of why I have sort of a crush on him. :) http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,2056610,00.html

Before today, I was always optimistic about America no matter what happened. But now I am not.

5. The "best" days (depending on your definition of best) of this version of America are past..... |
|
...... and I suspect there will be a long bleak period, akin to post WWII Europe, but hopefully the result will be something fairer, more commons-based and sustainable.
