This is a food distribution center (bread line) in Las Vegas. I have to note that every single car there is much nicer and newer than anything I own. Hm. A possible interpretation is that people who have otherwise led comfortable middle class lives their entire life are suddenly on the bread line through no fault of their own. As others already pointed out-lack of savings cushion is probably the main problem. however, they do spend on gas to get there, don't they, so benefit from not spending on food is being dimished by burning gas while waiting in line. Partially off topic: what exactly happened to Trace Mayer? He is gone from twitter since long time ago (end of Feb). He was there for long time. Not sure what happened, apart from some apparent trolling.

Could be worse. Could have panicked and pulled a mindrust, dumping your breeches near the bottom. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ One of the arguments for incrementalism .... So, even if any of us ends up panicking..... which could happen.. not saying that it could not... We should panic incrementally.. rather than fully. I strongly favour incremental panic

Nah. The middle classes are crap and uptight. I should know as I used to be one. We will move back into a world that we were built to understand. We will till the fields in the day time. In the evening the laird comes round and fucks your wife. And you if he's been drinking.

I strongly favour incremental panic as long as someone has most of their btc on an exchange, it is easy to panic fully. Scary times ahead.

The next few decades would be interesting to say the least.

A possible interpretation is that people who have otherwise led comfortable middle class lives their entire life are suddenly on the bread line through no fault of their own. Or maybe they did overspend in the car (and presumably other things too) if they don't have enough savings for at least a few months. Why not? It's the mainstream consumerist 'merkin way.

I don’t think a breadline really counts as a bailout. I can’t see any junk bonds in the pic.

Would you consider now to be an opportune time for the States and Fed to return to a balanced budget?
