If this next period of time is to go well, and it could, I think that what has to happen is some sort of a transformation - a maturation - that results in some very profound shifts in our culture; what it values, and what it prioritizes, and on a very deep level. And, too, there will have to be some sort of introspection and acknowledgement of (if not atonement for) certain past events. That is, growing up always involves coming to terms with one’s limits and faults. >>
chris, how do you factor in the 100 million or so “americans” who makeup what jim quinn has termed the “free shit army” do you think they can somehow become “responsible” individuals somehow? if so how do you see them coming around? what event in their lives could possibly set them to “thinking” as opposed to lashing out in anger / fear of losing their free shit?
