Zeitgeist

Voodoo Economics: I've witnessed at least 45 years of nonsense and magical thinking in managing the US economy. Eventually the cows will be coming home.

Institutional Collapse: Every institution of American life has been twisted to the service of a political agenda. We have now a riot of corruption and greed.

Allies Spurned: The country's military and economic allies have been brutally spurned. Europeans feel abandoned, Canadians and Japanese feel bewildered.
