The current economic crisis can be traced back to when we as a nation stopped thinking that it was important to deal with a person fairly, morally and ethically. In this present age it seems to be more important to make a profit, at all cost. Over many years we have been pushing GOD out of the picture, theĀ wisdom of the Ten Commandments have been replaced by a predatory attitude that knows no limit when it comes to making money, money at all cost. Our financial market place is terminally ill not because properties have lost their value, but because people lost their values or never learned them. This did not happen suddenly as some might lead you to believe, but rather over many years as our nation pulled away from its very roots. Our problem is not a financial problem, but a heart and mind problem. Unless this nation gets back to the common GOD given sense that it was given, this havoc will get worse before it gets better. I was listening to Warren Buffet the other day and his prediction is that we will be in the current economic crisis for five years. With all things considered now may be one of the best times to start building your own business, setting the foundations, and waiting on the tide of of the financial market to turn. I do not see the ethics, and morals of doing business changing anytime soon, but over time I do agree with Buffet that our own system will purge itself.
