When something has been wrong for a long time — or when books have been out of balance — there eventually comes a day of reckoning. That’s when debits and credits are added up and there’s either a credit or a price to be paid.

Preview of next week’s show: We’re going to continue looking at the coming age of reckoning, starting with the things that have gone wrong and how we can make the best of some days which threaten to be very dark for most people.
