Economics and political science really are the most dismal fields of study. In case you don't believe me, read this. This is at least arational and unblinking look down into the Abyss. When you look at economics, all personal agency vanishes. Now, while I don't understand the intricacies of economic models, I can understand good old supply and demand. And the consequences are fucking frightening. Reading that website reminded me of when I lost faith in God, except a secular lifestyle has redeeming qualities, qualities I have come to value immensely. This is just dismal.

Tomorrow: something upbeat.

Consider: "whatever happens in our lifetimes, life will still (probably) be worth living."
