2. What happens ...
What happens is that people will finally start thinking, not with their Reeptile brains, but with their rational faculties of human intelligence.

The collapse and suffering that will take place first will be ugly, like opening a Pandora's box so that people can actually see the results of what we here have been predicting... but it will require people to think differently, just as the Great Depression necessitated a whole new political and economic philosophy....

People have to go through the worse excesses of fascism to really get how bad it is. They have to suffer its consequences. That's why most of Europe is in such good shape politically, economically, and philosophically. America is lagging behind, but we'll get there... eventually.
