SAGGING U.S. ECONOMY

The first thing that comes to anyone's mind is home energy and gas prices -- affecting overall transportation costs and the passed-along costs for distribution of food and durable goods. The credit crunch -- people living on credit cards and overleveraged with debt. Fewer and lower paying jobs. The cost of health and life insurance. Heavy government borrowing -- tightening up the credit markets. Growing trade deficits with emerging industrial powers around the world.

What kind of concerted efforts can we make to reverse some or all of these trends and more?
