History tells us that these are the times when the public must be cautious in which ideas they forward along. <BR/><BR/>@Debby<BR/><BR/>So good to see you again!

It is a vicious cycle. Our leaders are looking at symptoms as if they are causes instead of trying to understand underlying causes. The use the media to market panic over symptoms so that we will feel the need to accept their solutions.

Economic downturns always create new market opportunities and weaken former market leaders. Even in the worst it means resources can be bought up for nothing.

Maybe if enough people ask leadership to make decisions based on reason rather than fear, we could accomplish much more.<BR/><BR/>As much as I've been wondering if fear communication is the symptom of an increasingly fragile empire, I think we owe it to ourselves as individuals to move forward with fearlessness regardless of those things which we cannot Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249654290264168416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10282351.post-47691431348387070522009-02-15T07:50:00.000-08:002009-02-15T07:50:00.000-08:00Rich,Tomorrow (Presidents Day), I tackle the same ...Rich,<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow (Presidents Day), I tackle the same subject from the perspective a hope.
