An Optimist's View on Crisis..

Sorry for the late post, Sunday was not its usual fun day. I definitely tried to do too much yesterday...


Though this crisis has affected many people far and wide, I think there is hope for future generations. This mistake made by financial institutions and banks has made people more aware of themselves and  how they are to spend/save their money. We as a nation need to change the way we do business, we need to remember that consumers make businesses profitable so they should have our best interests first, not profits. 


We also need to strengthen out  the work force in America so that the economy, our living conditions and our prosperity increase. As a college student, many people I talk to that have recently graduated are panicking, and rightfully so. Most jobs are being outcoursed (for businesses to make more profit), or terminated; leaving millions of people who have an education in a certain field nowhere. We need to reward those who are futhering their education by giving them jobs in their respected areas and having them help future generations that will be in their place. 


This financial crisis remined people that money does change poeple, or more appropiately, corporations. Blinded by profits, insitutions directly striked millions of people out of their homes, and savings. Deregulation in fianancial institutions have been in effect for log enough. What we need is a change, that is beneficial to the people, corporations and to the world. But enough on that, as I will post a more thorough post on Thursday talking about how we can break free of this recession.


Having a case of the Mondays.
