To begin with, I want to ask the question, "What made any society economically prosperous?" Was it that they had lots of jobs? Was it that they had lots of money? Was it that they had lots of resources? Was it that they had lots of luck?

The answer is it was none of those things. It was really that certain people in the society held a vision that they could be and do something more than the status quo. They saw that life didn't have to be so harsh or that the nature is self could be bent and molded to meet the dreams and visions of men and women.

In the current economic situation the world is facing many people are looking in the wrong direction for the solution. They have been educated to go to school to get a job. But what the world needs is people who know how to see what is needed and have the necessary skills to bring it into fruition.

Focusing education on getting just being able to get a job is the foundation of setting up a slave society. It is a necessary component of creating a disenfranchised workers know as the prolietariat who own nothing and know nothing but to seek employment from some benevolent overlord. This is why Marxism fails in the real world. It is not the working class that creates anything that a society use to grow and prosper. It is also not the Industrialist.

What makes a country great and gives it the power to grow is when the citizens of that country are simulated and motivated to look beyond their current state of affairs and actively strive to make improvements. This is why the internet is so important and must remain free.

Never before has man had the opportunity to connect with one another and provide each other solutions. The question is will people be able to see and respond to opportunity when it present itself. Beating the recession requires people taking a chance on themselves and aiming for the stars
