Good question, Dan;

1. Sadly, we have entered into another war, based on less than concrete issues, and are seeing history repeat itself.

2. We have let the illegal immigration situation get way out of hand. If it's true that if 50% of the illegals were deported, construction, agriculture and farming industries would be in crisis, why the hell don't we fix the situation? I have a family I've sort of adopted, and the kids live in fear that mom or dad will be deported if they are stopped for a non-functioning turn signal.

* The financial crisis proves that we need more accountability in Wall Street and in the financial sector.

* The deficit is close to, if not already unmanageable. The financial "bailout" has created major problems for future generations.

These events during the last 10 years will dramatically impact the lives our heirs will live.

Not pretty, when you think about it. We should all be concerned.
