>>This column is a great luscious orgy of optimism. Because the fact is, despite all the problems, America’s future is exceedingly bright.

Over the next 40 years, demographers estimate that the U.S. population will surge by an additional 100 million people, to 400 million over all.<<

Spoken like a man who thinks that growth is always a good thing, and that increased consumerism will provide an economic engine for that growth.

I'd love to be that optimistic. I just hope that 430 Americans will all have enough clean water to drink, enough food to eat, and enough energy to keep everything powered up.
