    I think (just my $.02 at it's worth) recycling, renewable and recovery of any commodity or asset is the future. We can't as a nation just keep buying and throwing it away as waste. For one thing we can't afford that anymore, resources are not unlimited, waste can be a solution rather than a problem and we are better than that!



    I also think if we can get our leaders (by us voting again), we can get back to having a better country again. We have a lot of positives others don't have. Transportation, communication, technology infrastructure, medical advances, energy production and even our education system are overall superior to most nations. So I may be a optimist (and I am), I think right here in the USA is the future and the next big thing. Yes we have a lot of problems, we all know what they are and we need to address them. It starts with working together and utilizing what we do have. Building what the next generation of Americans are going to need would go a long way and be a much more desirable outcome for all of us. In short we need to start producing and quit wasting what we have.

    I think Europe has big problems at all levels. The middle east countries can't quit killing themselves, I don't think they need our help in that! China is a producing nation now, they have very little consumer driven markets. When their people (and there is a lot of them) start demanding the items we take for granted. Well China is going to be a really problematic place to live, when everyone of them want a toaster too!

    Yes I think our country is and should be the next "BIG THING", it will be up to all of us for that to happen!
