Despite the calls for massive spending and "stimulus," if the current financial crisis has taught us anything, it is to save, not just spend. In fact, over the years "thrift" has become America's lost or forgotten virtue, rarely mentioned and never celebrated, despite its historical significance.

In an age when corruption and greed have crowded out personal responsibility, Thrift is lively, topical, and immediately useful.
