If we have a recession or depression that becomes bad enough can you imagine people quietly standing in soup lines as they did in the Great Depression? Sorry, I believe cities will burn and thus there may be a use for them.
Forests need periodic fires to clear deadwood & debris. Prevention only delays them into far larger, and unavoidable, cataclysms.
They won’t stand quietly in soup lines. With the doubling of our government debt and guaranteeing everything (except money markets, they changed their minds), we won’t have money for the soup. No soup for you!!

I’ve read articles that suggest that this time people would suffer more privately. That is, no soup line but food stamps. And the non-agricultural and more subburban culture would cause it to play out diferently.

I agree. Fact is, the US does not have nearly the quality of moral character it did in the 30’s. It will not be pretty if things really go down as is being discussed. Cities first, then suburbs. The farther out they get, the more “guns” they come up against. Also, as the rioters are themselves chewed up in urban and suburban battling there will simply be fewer of them. They have not been trained to use weapons.
