There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

I think there's a very good argument to be made about how much better the world is steadily becoming, but having said that there is still a hell of a lot to be angry about.

Things are FAR better than they were 100 years ago, at least in the Western world, but that only gives us TIME and a frame of reference to be mad at the rest of the stuff that isn't right, yet.

I agree completely.
