I agree Roger. Ironically, I think most people would be much happier with downsized expectations.

So do I. Maybe craftsmanship will come back into style over mass produced merchandise. I know it's a bit hokey, but I always think of this song when discussing the subject.

And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start
To mold a new reality
Closer to the heart, closer to the heart

The blacksmith and the artist
Reflect it in their art
They forge their creativity
Closer to the heart, yes closer to the heart

Philosophers and ploughmen
Each must know his part
To sow a new mentality
Closer to the heart, well closer to the heart
