What Now 2010?

Here we are - a new year. What changes are we going to expect this coming year? Are there going to be earth shattering changes to our climate? Will economic policies change such that wealth is better distributed between the haves and the have-nots? Or like most years, there will be a series of gradual changes each incrementally changing the environment in which we live to some degree.

How are we, as a global community, going to move forward? Will the wars that constantly rage be calmed? Will rational thought creep into the minds of those in power so that the waste that is war (and the perceived threats that precede it) is ended.

My fervent hope is for a a shift in global fiscal policy to one not based on debt management but on long term sustainable growth in industries that truly benefit human kind.
