Have you heard the news? Times is hard. We may be headed for another Great Depression. But the 1930s sure do need some 21st Century sprucing up! A few ideas:

* Kanye West remixes of Woody Guthrie songs
* Special Playboy issue: "Girls of the Lower East Side Tenement District"
* The Travel Channel presents Los Angeles' 100 Best Bread Lines
* America's Next Top Migrant Farm Worker
* Fireside vlogs
* Homeless hipsters: starving dumpster divers can call themselves "freegans"
* Annie Leibovitz photographs Scarlet Johansson and Anne Hathaway holding babies and looking dirty and severe
