Creative thinking/problem solving in today's global economy, 5 reasons we need it? ?

1. to create new products

2. to create new jobs

3. so that people can start new businesses

4. to make you stand out from the crowd

5. so that the economies of the world can put their shoes on again and start running

There's only one reason why we need creative thinking and problem solving in today's global economy: the past ideas are not working so well. We need new thinkers to create new ways of looking at the problem, and solving it.

Everything else is just a subset of this reason.

We need to think totally outside of the box.

We should all concentrate on NET WORTH primarily, not jobs. Trash the entire concept of consumerism. It is just a treadmill for the people that are not supposed to know accounting and accumulate wealth.

What good are new products that depreciate? The consumers are supposed to be dumb enough to buy them? Is that why no one says accounting should be mandatory in the schools? How is it that economists don't have to take accounting courses? ROFL

Are they supposed to be stupid too?

Is this compartmentalized STUPIDITY?

great question.
