What happens when an economy collapses?

I don't know the answer but I think we're about to find out.

That said, I think it very much depends on why (who caused it--Obama), how fast was its collapse, how stable was the society and ecomomy before the collapse, whose economy was it that collapse, how knowledgeable are the citizens about economic matters in general, and just how feisty are the citizens.

In the case of the U.S. economy at the present time, I would expect that there will be pitchforks on Pennsylvania Avenue.

I hope there are cattle ranchers willing to bring herds of cattle to feed the standing "army".

There was a blog a few days ago about how the market was still going up after that bill was passed on Sunday. Did anyone have a reason for the market doing that? Something is just not right there and I didn't hear any explanation for it...

People should coordinate with friends.

Make a list of friends.
Hunt them up when it's time to set society right.
Form a posse to fix things.

Also make a list of enemies ...

I don’t have a pitchfork, but I do have . . .
