Wow, well … shit.

This piece in Fortune, adapted by Eugene Linden from his book Winds of Change, is a front-runner for the most depressing thing I’ve ever read. I don’t see how anyone could read it and feel anything other than depressed paralysis.

I guess you should read it, if depressed paralysis is your thing. Me, I’m headed to Costco to buy some bottled water, canned food, and a rifle.
