Really enjoy reading you and Ayaan. I think there is only one way out. We must reinvigorate our belief in the West, our history and system. As a kid I thought Regan sounded hokey. I now understand what he was doing and how the population needed to be ever reminded of the benefits of our culture and system especially compared to everything else. It needs to be done in the school too - we need Pro American Studies. I listened to Bari’s interview with Sandberg. I was shocked at how much she hesitated and how many caveats she had to use before begrudgingly concluded that America isn’t so bad. If that is the final opinion of those who have so benefited from our system - your fears may be right.

I also believe we need to get back to a country run by local institutions and organizations. If we try solve our problems thru the Federal govt - we’ll tear ourselves apart.
