Green jobs. As the economy worsens and unemployment rises, stories about green jobs and the birth of green industries will give us hope for the future.
The biggest headlines - How about an apology from the leadership of those companies who are now needing a bail out from the people of America. I recall a Japanese leader who apologized for a mistake in his company that cost millions to the investors. Might be time for a little humility in Corporate America. Can you imagine such a thing?
CD Boman, I agree with you. I remember reading when Richard Branson repaid all of his stockholders the amount they lost when investing in Virgin Records stock. The crash had nothing to do with the health of his company, but his bank not trusting his word and then pulled the plug. They day when true capitalism plays out and the "theory" of "too big to fail" diminished to a much lower impact than it has today, is when more people will take responsibility for their actions. Its 2009 and unfortunately AIG and the like have continued to dominate media coverage. It will change, we will change, and it starts with looking in the mirror.

I'm hoping it will be about taking care of our own country's lost children.
