I am talking about beyond the financial situation. That is merely a natural part of the capitalistic system. The market is finally corrected itself for all the stupid stuff we have been doing for the past 12 years. The telecom bubble was the start of it correcting itself. I am talking more about our attitudes. We all want more money and to spend less so we buy at Wal-Mart. Then we complain that China is getting all our money.
