1. Somewhere between #2 and #3

Thing's aren't okay, but our problems are solveable. Right now, a large number of people aren't being serious about solving them. I worry that Republican leaders aren't charlatans, but sincerely believe believe their own delusional bullshit, which makes it harder to divert their followers towards finding workable, intelligent solutions for the problems of the day. Still right now the country and human civilization don't have problems for which there are no answers.

3. Between 1 and 2, although I voted for 2

I am pretty content with my life. I am a very optimistic person, and feel there is no reason to complain about the things I can't control. I am fortunate for a lot of things, and I try to appreciate the things I do have instead of harping on the things I don't. It could be so much worse. All in all, life is pretty good.

6. Same with me

The only time I'm seriously uncontent* is when I see a new Camaro drive by...I lustses....




* - Wait - I think I meant incontinent.

13. Back at you, LL.

All is not lost as long as there are those that still care.

5. People need to wake the hell up and stop defending the indefensible.

We are moving where the one percent wishes to take us without much resistance at all, and that is horrifying.

7. #3. While my situation is mostly OK, I find myself worrying a lot about the people around me.

8. Between 1&2,but I voted 2.

i wish more people were in a better position in life,however.

9. Between 2 & 3 for me -

My own situation is fairly good, although there are some issues that I worry about - particularly financial and health-related that prevent me from being completely happy.

Regarding the country as a whole I am not so optimistic.

10. I voted for number 3.

There are so many problems in this country .... so much pain and lack of understanding. I'm a lucky man, blessed in many ways, but I can't seem to remeber all the good for thinking about the bad. That's partly my shortcoming, though.

11. Pretty good!

12. It's a bittersweet symphony, this life.
