According to Wikipedia, the United States is the world’s largest producer of corn and soybeans.  Although it doesn’t say, I am beginning to believe that we also lead the world in producing outrage.  I don’t mean that we make more people in the world angry than anyone else, which may be possible, but that the average American produces more outrage than anyone else.  Getting outraged is what we do.  It’s the new national pastime, which is fine because baseball is so horribly dull anyway.  What I wonder, though, is how much more polarized and outraged our society may become.  Will it get better, or will it only get worse?
