Hmm, sounds like you're suffering from a case of advanced capitalism.  I 
prescribe an immediate change of regime to socialism.

Having gained some familiarity with the pointy end of the system, I 
recognize that USers increasingly face a choice between being worked to 
death or having no work at all.  I see this as the bleakest aspect of this 
society, apart from being involved in an endless pointless war.
