    Bottom line is, things are falling apart due to incompetence, not a very competent entity taking full control.

    That’s the only thing that gives me hope about us coming out the other side of this as recognizably the same nation that went into it.

    I get your other points, but (as I addressed elsewhere in the discussion) I find it “close enough” for my purposes.
