It’s the way of things. Every person is born into a world already in progress. You have to work with what you got and — with any luck — maKe it just a little better. Of course, their timeline is a little more urgent today.
Not everyone predicts the world would be worse. The Harris campaign is talking about a better future. But a future we make together. As our Founders gave us the charge in the very first sentence of our constitution.
We, the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union…
Then there was Lucy Van Pelt, of Peanuts fame. She once let Charlie Brown know she expected to live her adult life in a perfect world, so the grownups had until she turned 18 to fix everything. She was quite adamant about it, as I recall: “Tell ‘em not to bother wiring for an extension! The answer’ll be NO!”

I give little thought to the future (apart from the very near future) because the vast majority of predictions don’t come true.
