Might be the only one...
You said — “Note to self: start survivalist equipment company, because its a bull market right now.”
There you go! That’s the most reasonable thing I’ve heard so far about this big crash in our civilization... LOL...

Mind you, I do believe we’ve got a Great Depression on our hands and it’s going to continue deepening throughout 2009. And we’ll see if it continues deepening throughout 2010, too.
But, one can look back to the last Great Depression and realize that people did get by, although it was mighty hard for some. And now, our population has more assistance to help people from starving completely to death.
The question to ask is if in the last Great Depression, did society quit functioning totally and leave everyone “out in the cold”. No, it didn’t. It was severe and it was a really big problem, but society was still there doing its thing. And so it will be now, although I do believe it will be quite severe.
