How this is going to play out is that life is going to get expensive (you ain't seen nothing yet). Money will help a shit ton. This is also going to be a situation where it's expensive to be poor, see rent and how interest works.

It's not. I'll probably die, but most of us will. I never really bought into the promise of infinite growth in a finite system that I was raised to believe in. Everyone narrowly focuses on their own issues, but the larger system is breaking down.
