If we have a “greater depression”, America is finished.

During the 30’s, something like 80 percent of the people were rural. Now, the situation is almost the opposite.
City folk don’t grow beans.

This would be a nightmare scenario.

Well, let them pursue "knowledge industry." I think only a few percent of the population has the enough edge to make a living out of so-called "knowledge industry."

Soon many wanna-be will find that they have better luck with plowing the field.
