Here is a doom-and-gloom view of the world from the Wall Street Journal. They look at the problems in Europe and spin a tale of imminent calamity for the whole world. I, however, see the WSJ as a Cassandra:
The WSJ is like those prophets in mid 1940 wrote off England and proclaimed the end of the world as we know it and the start of a new age of barbarism. On the other hand, I believe in "muddle through". The Brits muddled, Hitler over-reached in Russia, and finally America joined the fray and the world managed to find a way to avoid the obvious bleak tragedy that all the experts foretold.
