Why do people say "things will get better!"

[CaptainWacky]

When there is often little or no emperical evidence that things will get better and, in fact, that's more evidence to support the contary conclusion (things will get worse)?

People say things like that because they don't know what else to say.

"Gee, I'm sorry you're dad's dead...but now at least he can be a useful fertilizer!"

Try saying that: see what happens!

Maybe people think things will get better because the government will finally respond to my persistent lobbying that all citizens be given free, subsidized Sleep Number Beds. THAT WOULD BE BETTER

It will get better when I'm done wanking...FOR ME, AT LEAST!
