It is time to at least start thinking of the parameters of what is going to be needed. Business and the economy is going to need as much if not more help in getting back on it's feet. It mst likely is going to be a slow and incremental process full of starts and stops. You had better have at least 3 different plans for 3 different scenarios and a couple of subset plans for each condition . People are not just going to jump up and say lets get to work again and tomorrow the economy is on again. Business maybe down for a long time and have expended it's capital in that time, workers may have moved on in one way or another. The big thing is the customers might not be there anymore or have the where with all to purchase or use that product. In other words it may not be that the spirit isn't willing but the flesh is incapable of doing. The people and nation may have expended all it's resources present and future in sustaining themselves during their down time.

The America that you knew is now truly gone. the perfect metaphor is that the store shelves that once were full are now empty and gone. If you don't believe me take a look at the extraordinary measures the FED and other CB's are taking to back stop the contagion of fear that is gripping the world. They are throwing in everything including the kitchen sink and so far to no real avail. They are burning everything without regard in a scorched earth policy. For they see it as a no tomorrow scenario.
