Pessimism

Sorry to bring you down, but I’ve been in a pessimistic mood lately, must be budget time effecting me.

Civilization is in a race to spread before the anti-civilization moieties gain the ability to destroy or delay the future. I think civilization is loosing at this point because of greed. As long as people get what they want for the most part, they ignore the long term. We are watching as Iran gains nuclear weapons. Civilization did nothing to prevent NK from getting nukes. Soon anyone who has the money and power will get nukes. Eventually one will go off in NYC or Tokyo. The people of the US will demand that any threatening nuclear power be destroyed. Who will pull the trigger on a nuclear holocaust. Any US president who pulls the trigger will be voted out of office. We can only hope that this occurs in the second term of a US president and he has the testicular fortitude to do what’s right, damn the consequences.
