I am a happily-engaged man with a step-daughter, so I'm getting there. I'm a worrier by nature, so looking forward to the future is a heavy lift for me, even with the blessings of loved ones and a good job that can support them. I fear for this country and its future. I fear for what the country has already become. We're a nation of individuals in economic and cultural competition with each other, which isn't exactly what I'd call a "country" exactly in the real sense of the thing. I fear for the world my step-daughter will inherit after I'm long gone. I don't think our national values are ever getting back to where they used to be. I think we'll just keep worshipping and supporting the rich at the expense of normal folks.
