Drinking a lot of hooch to get through the day has a pejorative connotation that such a libation is required. .

It is your very optimism that is leading you to the cliff. as that optimism keeps you from changing the behaviors that are destructive. There is nothing to be optimistic about when your behavior is destructive and is inexorability leading to a historically predictable bad end.

Bitterly clinging to the past perception of being a rich nation after 1980 has incrementally led Americans to the denouement of 2008. Since 2008 the requiem for a former champion has been playing itself out.

You might think of it as...The alcoholic continuing to indulge in the perceptional hooch of being a rich nation after the Md has told him the stuff is going to kill him. The alkie being optimistic can not bring himself to believe what the Md is telling him is true as he continues to indulge in the destructive behavior..Continuing the destructive behavior only exacerbates the condition hastening the day of the bad ending.

Is the Krystal?
