Do you see any upside in the economic downturn?

Asked by 6rant6 (13700points) July 13th, 2010

Sometimes bad things have good consquences.

The great depression resulted in the WPA which created Hoover Dam, which made Las Vegas possible. Autocratic government and crushing poverty during the first millennium is thought to have contributed to the richness of Eastern philosophies.

Is there anything you see as an upside to the current economic problems – either personal, or societal?
