There's far too much lip-smacking eagerness around here, over the prospect of a second Great Depression. It isn't a football game, that can be enjoyed from the sidelines, it's going to affect ALL of us. And I'm not talking about small inconveniences. A real Depression is going to kill your savings account, your job, your car loan (and car), your income, your mortgage, your rent, your utilities and your food budget. Only the lucky ones will still have enough to eat, and don't count on being among the lucky ones.

A 1929-style stock market crash won't affect just the rich. We won't be cheering on the destruction of the Deep State, we'll be wondering where our next meal is coming from.

Prepare now for an economic crash, and you might make it through to the Trump Administration. And while you're waiting, a couple of good history books that tell you what the last Depression was like would be a great idea.
