Economy Time!

I hate to say I told you so.

The economy is still in a tailspin and I read that India has got a similar problem with predatory lending.

Two documentaries that I saw a couple years ago turned out to be on the money. One was Maxed Out. It told about the gross amount of debt that Americans are in and how our economy depends on it and the growth it creates. The second movie was a peak oil presentation that made my girlfriend cry it was so fatalist. But the things predicted in that presentation are coming true. I don’t think it’s going to happen as stock-up-on-guns-and-gold quickly though.

I proposed writing a piece for frog Design’s designmind publication. The piece would be about how many current events are driving Americans toward design and it’s related priciples. I really hope it gets in because I could write ad naseum on the topic by now.
