New era

Well, it's the dawning of a new era in American politics. I really hope the new administration can help put the economy back on the right track. I know they can't do it themselves, the public has to participate. They really have their work cut out for them; more layoff announcements every day, companies that aren't laying off are announcing wage and hiring freezes, banks aren't loaning money, cars aren't selling...... everything seems to be looking bleak.

You have all heard the old saying about being darkest before the dawn, so I guess it must be getting close to daybreak! The bright spots in the whole deal is the people of this great country; the people who are innovators, the visionaries, the hard working people who make this county what it has been in the past and hopefully will continue to be!
