Next time, instead of basing the economy on trickle-down economics where the rich feed upon the working class, perhaps it's wiser to develop an economy that respects the largest segment of our population, and which works to enrich them.
If the working class had not had to put up with constantly losing their jobs overseas and a perpetual employer's market where every single job posted gets 10,000 resumes competing for it... we wouldn't be in this mess.
Practically speaking, when workers are calling the shots, guess what? Workers spend money and money being spent keeps businesses afloat and the economy circulating properly.
We are now seeing the benefits of the perpetual employer's market - they're culling the working class herd like crazy and the working class is retaliating by cutting back severely on spending... which means employers are going out of business. And we're not just talking about mom and pop stores. Mervyn's is gone, and even Wal Mart has posted a fourth quarter profit shortfall - is this a precursor to Wal Mart's collapse? Nah. Wish it was, though.
BTW when you go out of business, do you get to collect unemployment?
