...No stupid useless college degrees in stupid useless fields of study, no latest fashions, no overpriced coffee drinks, no overpriced "natural" foods, no expensive consumer electronics, no iPhones, no cable, no Internet...

An economy can pick itself up pretty quick, however, after an utter bust... if the folly that made it go bust also goes bust itself. It’ll be a literal jubilee... everyone takes a bath, then it gets rebuilt... IF, big IF, the gospel still reigns. If God decides to make it all go tilt unto the end times, then Katy bar the door. Maybe some of us will be saying “Hello, Jesus!” sooner than we think.
