In contrast, most fuel companies are making redundancies, although crude is up since month, London prices are still half the high.

I think that although there are obviously going to be immediate economic problems, here is massive potential for future wealth. Hard times drive great new business ideas.

I myself finished a Biochemical degree last year, and have decided to do a masters in Medicine and Surgery because there was no prospect of getting a decent wage. Times are tough, but people can flourish when placed under sufficient stress.

Don’t forget the oil industry… oil just doubled in value over the last 5 months… I bet they’re hiring plenty right now…

I feel sorry for the new grads. It is a tough economy, but it may create a new generation of entrepreneurs and it may be the beginning of the next Microsoft.

Well said, William. It will be a bigger problem as time goes on. The government will readily admit that the heart of the American dream and the success we have is the entrepreneurial spirit and small business nature (i.e. “Joe the Plumber”). That is the way this country and its people will survive. When industry is replaced with initiative, we will truly be successful as a people, wealth will naturally spread itself out more without the socialist agenda of the left or the capitalist agenda of the right. It will also mean that more money is moving, like you stated. Wonderful point.

By the way, Jennifer, wonderful related article to mine from the same day! I like how we related ideas there.

I must say this will surely be a bigger problem as the years go by. We should all remember that the base and foundation of economy is Food, and thus now days, the food chain is being dominated by industries which is bad ! in some terms and long term.

The Big problem with this economy is the following: ” People should try and go back to the old days, where having a business was the ideal thing. During the time of Rome, sons of fathers worked where their fathers worked because they had the road to it opened, and most probably learned the tasks early on..

We should all go for what we really have oportunities, and know, and try to make a small business.

One thing to add, the people guilty of this are those that have lots and lots of money, millionaires, and that they just stay with the money without fluent reivestment. These people take money off the market and put it away, meaning less money is moving, which means the harder the economy. Moving money is like the grease to a wheel.
