@jwildeboer Bah, what an apocalyptic point of view there. Now, I am far from saying everything is rosy, but, unlike you, I personally recognise plenty of positive signals towards the future. I know, many of these things have to do with interpretation of weak signals and the specific information bubbles we live in, but generally speaking, I invite you to try to recognise also the potentially less gloomy outlooks than you present. To provide some material, I'll try to react to your individual messages, of course I am not attempting to convince, or argue.
