Jay a nihilist!?? C'mon Ray, he's a realist with first-hand knowledge of what happens to small objects that find themselves in the path of great waves. Most of them get swept up, tossed, crushed and buried in the debris. The difference with small humans in the path of socio-economic-political waves is that humans can learn from history, anticipate and prepare. Those of us who are both realistic and optimistic try to do that, but that doesn't mean we lose touch with the beauty around us. A nihilist wouldn't be wasting his time preparing. A fighting spirit made the U.S.A., but to assess what it will do for you (with your beliefs in today's U.S.), you must assess your fellow Americans. Noting (as you do) the stark contrast between your views and their own, I concur that Raymond will go down fighting. I will watch him go down fighting. I also expect this: I am figuring that the current cycle will eventually see us forced to gobble up some flavor of debt-engendered and energy crisis augmented economic depression flavored with a hint of stagflation and decorated with global currency regime change but see no nihilism in it; it is not so different from what your own posts point toward.
