I think that shortly, the American people will just change some of the way they do things. There will be more work done at home on computer, more people travelling and sharing costs, etc.
I believe in America, in both the businesses that are doing well now, and in the potential for each American to be equally as successful.

you are wrong about free enterprise and not putting caps on profits, tell that to my wifes family who is all farmers, who puts the food on your table.
farmers are told what they can sell their goods for, they are regulated on everything, why is oil more important than food ask yourself this question. dont think everyone gets the same way our over charging oil companies friends get cause they dont.
her family spends hundreds of thousands on diesel and fuel every year, then they have land taxes, expensive equipment and maintence, feed for cattle, and hands for working the crops. there are a ton of cost for farmers and at the end of the day they are told what they can sell for. is that right
HECK NO. so before we scream about free enterprise its a joke, only certain people get the leeway
