Are doom & gloomers ever right in their numerous and freqent predictions of disaster?

I'm not simply talking about the garden variety doom & gloomers who are constantly predicting a massive economic collapse or continually warning about the evil plans of the New World Order. I also include the al-Qaeda fearmongers who are constantly predicting nuclear Jihad in America. I'm also talking about the global warming alarmists who predict that the east coast of the US will eventually be submerged in a major flood.

These groups of doom & gloomers have different agendas for sure but they're basically the same in their fearmongering and pessimissm. It's as if they want a disaster to happen so they can screech "I told you so!"

Fortunately, these prophets of disaster are as wrong in their predictions as they are negative and pessimistic.

I really wonder why America is full of these types of people.

Actually, they're almost never wrong, they merely fall under the variations of the rule that states "The Market [read also System, or Society] can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent".

If they were actually wrong in the aggregate, or over time, then there would be evidence like a return to sound money, or politicians suddenly spending less, and the Constitution actually being followed to the letter.

Ya see that happening? I don't think so, so a word to the wise - Hope for the best but remain prepared for the worst, and the possibility you merely might have to pass on those preparations to your kids...

I've been hearing predictions of a massive economic collapse for almost 20 years now and it hasn't happened. But the typical doom & gloomer says it's just around the corner.

I really don't see much difference between them and those who say al-Qaeda is about to detonate a nuke in America.

People were predicting the US civil war 30 years before it happened.
