This country, this world, are both flawed. Clinging to the old ways, refusing to adapt, can last only a few more years. A crisis is coming. At some point, the debate between 80s conservatives and 60s liberals will become moot. The majority will be radicals.
Crisis brings on fundamental change greater than any anticipated before the crisis begins.
I'd prefer to think it is not. This is a projection that a pattern observable in past crises will continue in the next. It is a testable prediction. Alas, it may take 20 or 30 years to see if the predicted pattern holds true.
