I’ve often wondered if I’ll see severe world wars that damaged my grandfather and father, the massive depression my parents and grandparents survived. I think we have very hard times ahead, as our country dissolves into stupidity and graft, and our prosperity disappears.

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.
