RW, > Another reason why the biggest threat to this country has always been the economy.

I just have a problem with materialism covering up the underlying issues with society. So many people buy into the myth that if only they didn't have to worry about money, they could fix everything wrong with their lives and their families.

Not that I'm praying for an extended recession, but we could probably use this time to focus on what's important. If that means we spend less time at the job and more time on our kids, then regardless of how the economy turns out we will emerge much stronger as a society.

That's one thing that worries me about the drive toward trying to cut short this recession. Anyway, just a thought.
