In today's economic recession, many have lost their jobs, more can't find work, and unemployment rates are breaking records. While many businesses are as hard-pressed as consumers, one industry could see an increase in business during these rough economic times: movie theaters.

Skip ahead to today's recession, and it's easy to see why Americans still love to go to the movies. Here are a few reasons why Americans are attracted to movie theaters during times of economic hardship.

If you browse the web, you'll come across many websites that has one or more video clips embedded in it. News websites such as BBC and CNN fall in this category. But, what about a website that has only video clips and nothing else? This is exactly what the Youtube Phenomenon is all about. To those who have not heard about Youtube, it is a video sharing website where one could upload, share, and watch video clips - Youtube videos - for free. It is owned by Google.

I have always believed in the right of free expression. People should be able to express an opinion without being punished for it. The exceptions to that rule are using an opinion to defame without cause, slander someone or attack their ethnicity. That goes far beyond the fair expression of an opinion. Could the current slump in movie ticket sales be the result of Hollywood's war against traditional values? Have liberal actors gone too far in their political expressions to remain marketable?
