someone sent me this, I thought it was a good read...

edit: an article about everything that's bad about America these days especially compared to some other countries in the world.

I think the article makes some good points, but it also seems clear the author believes all of our problems are cultural rather than physical. Undoubtedly culture has a big influence on how things have been playing out, but the limits of our physical world are also vitally important in planning a path of least loss into the future.
