More Americans than ever are starting to wake up to the fact that the "American Dream" is over. The financial system of the United States has been built on a massive pyramid of debt, and not that it is crashing down, men and women with discernment are realizing that it can never be put back together the same way again.

Is it time to move to the mountains and to stock up on beans and butter?

Will riots break out in the cities when the majority of Americans realize that their food is getting low and that the good times are gone forever?.....

I'm assuming that you're not making a clever play on words, and that you didn't intend to imply that people should live in their SUV's.

That might not be a bad idea, however, because when the whole population has to go into survival mode, there simply aren't enough "safe places" in the world to house, clothe and feed everyone.

Those who live in the cities will be hard pressed to live a life of survival when they have to fend off the desperate hordes each day.

So SUV-valism might be a valid path to consider.

This might not happen, but companies should cooperate just to keep the world going. They should keep producing because the world needs it. I'm sure they need some of their own products as well. Who would make it if they shut down? Employ more people, but give more days off maybe. Money doesn't matter because no one can afford anything anyway. Might be a longshot though. We may be too barbaric to do such a thing. It sure would be better than riots and murder though. Survivalism is probably the next best idea.

You do realize that 93% of us are still working and earning the same? Just a reality check?

That sounds like a plan.
