I am sure people in 1930-45 said holy crap how will we ever survive. A great depression followed by war on a scale hopefully we will never know but somehow the nation got through it. What I would like to see from our political leaders is a plan of action that will result in change things even if it is bitter going down. We were able to get a man on the moon in less than ten years after making it a national goal. Why can't we do the same for algae or hemp based biofuel. How about a tax structure that rewards people who save. For every 500 dollars average increase in your designated savings account over the course of a year you get 50 off your taxes. A higher % income tax rate for those people making over 5 million. A higher inheritance tax for amounts over 10 million. Elimination of hard and soft pork projects. There is a lot of stuff we could do if we had the stomach and backbone for it.
