Very true, Tim.  OUR liberal naivet? has a history of making world crises
much worse. It's truly wonderful that we can look upon our own lives and
future with unbounded optimism, how else could a liberal mindset ever exist.
It's quite another to ascribe that same level of optimism to others,
particularly when the don't remotely share our world view.
