The culture is in a creative standstill because of economics. I was just in Charlotte, NC, and it is becoming apparent that the accountants cost-saving mechanisms are trumping the creativity to raise revenues by having original sources of inspiration.

I consistently hear that the economy is slowing. It is, but I think it is because the consumer is bored with their choices. If you went to a store with a $1000 to spend, I don't think you could find the originality in product line to actually spend the $1000. Whose fault is that?
