The recession will help us finally kill the old health care system and replace it with something new. When so many people are out of work and thus out of health insurance, something will need to change. The optimist in me hopes that it will change for the better, but probably not...
It would be nice if the recession would also change the crazy way college educations are valued and funded...but I doubt it. Especially since the stimulus bill kept funding for more college loans instead of hinting to people that 1) maybe a college education is not the most valuable thing for you in particular, and 2) college and university presidents need to get off the treadmill of constantly increasing budgets and tuition. There has got to be a better way.
