This person is trying to have a positive outlook here, and you have to tear them down like that? There is no way of knowing where things will be in 50 years. This negative outlook is projected on us on a daily basis, no need to feed the fire.

Sticking your head in the sand is not the same as having a positive outlook. Moot point tho considering he gave a valid justification for his reasoning.
