The key to a stainable recovery is first cure our addiction to credit. Our whole system is based on governments, individuals and businesses having access to plentiful and cheap credit. The next major issue for the US is renewable energy. If we can source our energy from within our country, and by renewable means, this will go a long way towards both an economic and environmental recovery. Globalization will continue to be a strong theme. As much as people complain about our jobs outsourced - it's a good thing that the rest of the world can find ways to produce goods and services, and save money, and have these countries participate peacefully in the global economy.

If we had been thinking holistically about our planet and the way it works and not just with our wallets then we wouldn't be where we are with the economy, jobs, terrorism, social security, education, energy, Medicare, health care, etc....
