Any ideas on a business start up to help this economy?

Hi, I am looking to start my own business. I am looking for a business idea that can thrive in this bad economy, so far all I think can survive is a business that somehow helps people during these tough times. So does anyone have any ideas? Or any ideas on what people need right now? Thank you

I would not advise you to go into business just to go into business… do so for a passion that you have. Stimulating the economy with a business is a great goal but can you assure success without a study of the market? experience? capital??? Start with a business plan once you decide on what you think is fool proof. For an answer to WHAT to do… follow you heart but use your head.
