Start a business in this economy? Without capitol or income? Perhaps the author meant to say, "these job cuts are going to force a lot of people to find their inner-bankruptcy."

Just wanted to commend you on your accurate representation of what true capitalism is all about. Sometimes I think that we as a nation have become too much of cry baby spoiled brat...that when pushed...simply fall down and whine as to "when mommy will come to pick me up".

We forget that in-reality it's OUR JOB..to pick ourselves up.

Oh, and by the way, in the interest of transparency and full disclosure...I'm am at-the-moment...almost FLAT BROKE and 6 month unemployed. Just so you know.

Thanks again for your article!
