This Old Economist: “Adjust the Dream Dial”

There has been a change in our economic vocabulary.


From ‘driving, relentless, unlimited, easy’ to ‘dampening, weakening, shrinking, contracting.’

Someday a government, business or economic leader will tell families they must “adjust the dial downward on the Canadian, American or European Dream” and families will get it. They’ll realize the economy and environment have been pushed past sustainable limits for many years.


Start saving change and fivers for tough times.


‘Be Prepared’ like good little Cub Scouts.
