Great! We're better overall than we were! No reason to rest on our laurels, though. How can we be better than we are now?

Here's some areas that aren't doing too well:

1. Climate Change - We're in store for a lot of trouble over the next few decades[1]. How will we manage?

2. Wealth Inequality - The gap is widening[2]. How do we reverse the trend?

3. Gerrymandering/voter suppression - The ones in power are the ones who draw the district boundaries[3]. How do we stop the feedback loop?
