3. They won't get the message

Corporate America won't get the message until everything shuts down. When all their customers are broke and forced to survive by barter, garage sales and swap meets, they still won't get the message. Not until it affects them. When no one will gas up their yacht or fuel their Gulfstream III, when no one will cook their food and serve it to them, when no one will mow their golf courses or clean their McMansions, only then will they notice.

Unfortunately, when unemployment is running at 90%, the only jobs left will be gassing up yachts, and cooking and cleaning for folks with money.
