Things Could Be Worse...

the media sells us only fear and sex, nothing else of value.
There are huge differences between 1930s and current crisis.
There are many safety nets which did not exist in the 30s.
Global trade is well and alive.
These crisis are a necessity. They flush out the excesses and we will come out of it a much better nation.
People still need to eat, to have a roof on their head, to be entertained and life will go on.
US has huge amount of waste, from our gas guzzlers to amount of junk mail we produce to packaging our products and buying stuff we do not need.
New industries are being created (alt fuel tech, bio tech, etc. ) which will be the industries of the future. The US leads in all these industries.
Empires do not fall this fast. It takes couple of centuries and the 21st century is still the US century.
