Economic theories and the decline of western civilization

I've been long wondering about what's wrong with our economy and the entire American way of life that has lead us to such a materialistic existence. Along those lines, I spend much of my time researching exactly those issues and will provide links to articles I find that seem particularly insightful. Just found one.

I first saw this guy David Korten just a few days ago on the one hour PBS special program "fixing the future" by David Brancaccio.

It was the first positive news that maybe America has some hope to come out of this crisis with some grace. If we can only wake the walking dead (who don't know they're dead - don't worry, you don't know who you are.)

I can hardly wait until David Korten's recent book "agenda for a new economy" is available as an Audio book.
