You would hope it would be a wakeup call but we are already too broken and divided by design. The US was founded by the wealthy for the wealthy. We have excelled at taking what is not ours and exploiting resources to the detriment of the world's ecosystem.

We have become the world's biggest problem and spread our fascism across the planet.

I would be a lot more gloom and doom if I also didn't know that life has improved dramatically for billions of people in the last twenty years.

At any rate, thanks for talking.
