Does anyone else become depressed from reading Mish’s Blog or any other decent economy blog?

[sdduuuude]

Au contraire,

They make me feel educated. What’s more depressing – expecting bad things to happen and the do. Or expecting good things to happen, then being surprised when bad things happen ?

They help me prepare for my own future rather than sit idly by and be ignorant. This puts power in my own hands, which is just the opposite of depression, wherein people tend to sit by and let things happen to them.

I would say that human nature is averse to “negativity”.

For example, on television, I would not mind more educational shows on travel, hunger, corruption, diseases, etc… But even when there are those shows, they tend to be more entertaining than educational. Too much education and they become boring college lectures and viewers would turn away. I always enjoyed school so it’s not a problem for me. Most people, however, would rather have entertainment.

When you watch a movie, do you want a realistic “sad” ending or a happy ending?

I don’t consider many of the predictions low probability; they just take longer to materialize than most think.

Longer than it takes a broken clock to be right in many cases.
