No, I have nothing good *to say* about American society. I'll keep any
positive feelings I might harbor about this place to myself. The gap
between what the US is and what it could be as a decent society and
inspiration to other nations -- given our wealth and professed principles --
is too huge to waste time singing hallelujah about our puny achievements to
date.
