one vision of tomorrow

I followed a link from Jim in Minneapolis (CLICK) to check out a writer whom I know Jim likes to read. I found this, although probably it should be added to the "contribute" article I posted yesterday. 

 "The current occupant of the White House, however, has sedulously prepared for his successor the biggest shit sandwich the world has ever seen, and there is naturally some concern that Mr. Obama might choke on it. The dilemma is essentially this: the consumer economy we all knew and loved has died. There will be pressure from nearly every quarter to keep it hooked up to the costly life support machines even though it is dead. A different economy is waiting to be born, but it is nothing like the one that has died."
