then what..

I'm probably one of the few people who are optimistic about this economic and financial mess. There has been too much emphasis on getting rich without working for it. What we don't hear about is all the small and not so small businesses that actual make stuff, that innovate and develop new products and amazing technologies and materials.

These folks have been relegated to obscurity because they aren't flashy or conspicuously consuming. But soon, they will be in great demand. The innovators will be the new heroes. I can hardly wait!

While government bailouts are almost always palliative, providing critical care to prolong the life of a dying business deemed too big to fail, innovation in the private sector is the cornerstone of continued economic growth long after the bailout funds are used up.
