Your comment about the 30’s is one I’ve brought up too. Also, the nation does not have the character it did then. Crime will be rampant.

I wonder what would happen if EBT cards suddenly stopped working for, say, a week.

I believe we saw what happens when the cards stopped working for a few hours. Extrapolate from there.

We saw what happens when the EBT cards stopped working for just an afternoon. Looking further, when Sandy came through, it only took 72 hours and people were dumpster diving for food.

A monetary collapse will be a truly ugly thing and I don't think it will creep up on us. Knowing this government, we might just wake up one day to closed banks and a crashed stock market.
