    First, let me get the caveat out of the way: I didn't spend any time fact-checking any of the points in this article. I know, I know. I normally try to look at sources, but reading through these just left me feeling too good for once and maybe I just don't want to ruin a good thing!

    I was just left with the immediate sensation that, yes, the doom-and-gloom media has even gotten to me -- the guy who tries to read both sides, verify facts, take everything with a grain of salt, understand that media has a selfish mission, etc. -- to the point where I've been feeling not so great about future prospects for my children. And then, just like that, I've been reminded that there are really good things happening on a macro level too!
