Comment on: Topic 'System Collapse (Warning: Unpleasant reading)': ally insolvent on every level, and the double hit of the war in Iraq and the gambling ways of the former masters of the universe just pushed the system over the brink. This means dramatically less business activity, including recruiting, decreasing in a series of waves down to as little as half of our previous economic activity. That means we are going to be seeing a lot of one-car families, people living with relatives, simple meals, far less travel, and a whole lot less of what we called "luxury" items across the board. This may last from five to as long as fifteen years as things get reworked. Now for the good news: Visions of social disorder, anarchy, concentration camps, etc. are not going to happen absent natural disaster of huge proportions or a nuclear exchange with Russia or China. Our law-enfocrement regime is robust, to say the least. We are the most heavily armed society in the history of the world (I myself rarely leave the house without something strapped on) and people always underrate how strong highly ordered societies really are- looking at the last days of the Third Reich and the Japanese Empire, those social orders were under unimaginable stress and they did not really break down badly. Besides, (dont look now), but our prision system is already functioning as a kind of gulag. Not only is all of the above true, but our nation still has vast wealth. We spend 7 billion a year on potato chips and more on defense than the rest of the world combined. Our new president is probably among the most talented and legititimate leaders to ever hold the office, and he seems focused on healthcare and energy- solving or mitigating those two items alone would turn it all around. We are going to change the way we live in this country, like it or not. We have put it off for two generations and certain political elements think its god-given to keep doing what we have been doing, but it's not and we wont. Now this deal in California- states can't print money and so here we are. The feds will make good on the immediate debts of the state, but this will be a warning shot across the bow in terms of how radically things will have to change. So what does this mean to most of us ? We are going to survive. We are all going to be much poorer than we thought we were going to be. The gap between rich and poor is going to narrow, maybe very quickly as saved cash either loses its value or just goes away to pixel land as it's doing by the hour now. Economic activity will go on, just at smaller scale. If you keep doing what you are good at doing, and realize that you are going to work hard for a lot less 'reward', you will be on the right track. It's ugly, but we will be back, and when we come back, things will be on a better basis on a lot of levels. Thats my 1.2 cents- deflated along with everything else.....…; Added by Martin H.Snyder at 9:08am on February 4, 2009
