As John Maynard Keynes put it: 'The thought of ultimate loss which overtakes pioneers, as experience undoubtedly tells us and them, is put aside as a healthy man puts aside the expectation of death.' Right now, too many would-be pioneers are worrying about dangers and not rewards. Fear has overwhelmed greed: the adventurous are on the retreat. Until we reverse this psychology, we shall never recover our economic momentum.
