Many thanks to Bill Avera, for speaking to the Social Issues Class Sunday Jan 25. Bill's perspectives on the economics of bailouts; value of education; and various options for making the economy improve were much appreciated.
A lasting comment to paraphrase (I hope this is at least close) came when he summarized his thesis adviser's perspective on the economy:
The potential upside for our economy is only limited by what we can think of in our minds. Unfortunately, the potential for how low our economy can go is also only limted by how bad we think it can get in our own minds.
Couple Bill's thoughts with Joseph's message about our perceptions of good things happening and we may have something good to think about.
