In economic winter, signs of spring
The US will emerge from the financial crisis, and one day new jobs will outnumber layoffs. There are fragile, slender shoots of new life in the economy already.

Six months ago the question was: "When will this financial and economic crisis be over?"
Today, increasingly, the questions are: "Why should this ever be over?" "What's ever going to turn this around?"
Right now, with unemployment rising, it's hard to remember that capitalism is a creator of jobs, companies and industries -- as well as a destroyer.
But I see signs of the growth to come. I see a few fragile shoots of the new economy that will replace some, at least, and maybe all of the jobs lost in this recession. Just like a crocus poking up through the snow is a sign of the spring to come, these examples of growth promise that this recession will someday give way to a time of new investment and new jobs.

Jim Jubak? If you are out there.....I would like to personally thank you for being a champ. It takes big balls to stand out in a crowd of media folk that scream nothing but doom and gloom and chirp your thoughts of optimism.
I could kiss you.......it's ok...the Mister won't mind.
