Tom- Great post, but I'm getting a bit concerned about our reliance on government, especially our Federal branch. Maybe the government should do away with restrictive and time consuming regulations, including banking restrictions that keep our small business people from getting loans, and get out of our way. With availability of capital, entrepreneurs can bring our economy back.

From the small business side, we are not going to budge till DC figures out how they are going to go with taxes and health care period.

Tom, I believe Obama is overated since people once believed he could do many things such as reduce emissions, however, he too couldn't do that. I hope these plans work though, as the above post said, entrepreneurs could bring the economy back.

young investors should start with China and India. In the west it is very difficult to start.
