G20 Summit - Crisis of Confidence - VID

Added 01 April 2009 View full list    Print version    
The G20 leadership summit kicks off today in London.

Heads of state, along with their respective foreign ministers and finance officials, will meet in the British capital to discuss ways of bringing stability and growth to the world's troubled financial markets.

In his social comment editorial on this site, social commentator Mal Fletcher says, 'The cornerstones of a modern economy are not found in metrics, corporate spreadsheets or government targets; they are found in human emotion, and particularly feelings of confidence.'

'You can digitize money,' he adds, 'but you can't digitize human emotions. Statistics are merely human stories with the tears removed.'

I thoroughly loved reading The Joseph Chronicles, and found it to be very encouraging. Mal, you're more than an inspiration - you're a catalyst for change.

How true that we live in a disconnected society! Our Facebook friends are more likely to share our innermost thoughts than are our neighbours.
