So they believe what they hear on the news or what "everybody" is saying or the misunderstood Forrester Research study mentioned above etc. So what else is new?

Truly.

Isn't it interesting that the Japanese are deploying technology superior to our own? China has built a MAGLEV train - while we talk about planning one. China is becoming the industrial center of the world - and we have export deficits in most areas other than aircraft, aircraft parts, and agricultural products. We have the export profile of a third world nation.

Meanwhile, the free traitors prefer to believe that all is well.

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

I was watching some news program just yesterday (Sunday 6/14) and they were discussing the lack of normal snowfall in the Rocky Mountains. They went on to talk about how the future fresh water supply of much of California will be effected by these development and will especially be effected if this trend continues. "This will impact agriculture greatly", the reporter said.

Does anyone, besides me, see an opporitunity developing because of of this misfortune? No, I'm not refering to further agricultural subsidies either, Mr. Green. I say this because if there is one thing that some of us as Americans have a hard time doing is anticipating demands. For whatever reason it is so hard for some of us to think beyond the current conditions. Many times we chase trends instead of getting in front of them.

It is true that life & nature will bring about its share of doom & gloom but it has just as many positives. Capitalize on the positives!

Someone already mentioned trends both cyclical and secular on this very thread. Sorry for stealing your idea but I wanted to elaborate on it.
