Anytime some expert on TV presents depressing data or other findings (think global warming or health of the economy, health of democracy …) they always end their comment with something along the lines of “but I am an optimist and we will find a way.” … at what point are we going to stop being optimists? When will we have to face the music and realize that the data is right and optimism doesn’t cut it.
at what point are we going to stop being optimists?
