Aha. I was trying to figure out why this thread kept coming up without any new posts. Then I remembered that it's a poll. So, interesting results so far, at least to me. I hadn't expected there to be so many optimists out there, knew there were a few, but there seems to be about twice as many as there are of the "we're getting richer, but corrupt" crowd. Kinda the reverse of what I expected. On the other hand, it's definitely possible that the optimists just want to get the word out, and the pessimists just take it for granted that the world is deteriorating. Lots of world sucks votes since last time I looked, but no comments blaming it on Bush/capitalism. Interesting.
