9. I hear what you people are saying
and I'm with you in feeling like those who have basically profited from the misery and servitude of others should get a taste of their own medicine, so to speak...but I still really hope all of society doesn't collapse and all.

Every time I've been homeless and/or destitute, I've been able to live off the leavings of others. If everything falls apart completely (DEFINITELY not saying that would be the consequence of not bailing out Wall Street immediately, no holds barred, do it now or die, btw...just the consequence of not doing something to fix things, as I do think we're at a crisis point and need to take steps to keep things from collapsing), we won't be able to dumpster dive or even shoplift, since there won't be any extra food/goods to be thrown out or stolen.

Maybe it's the city living that's got me to this point, since there's no way I could "live off the land" without pillaging my way through a lot of bystanders before I got there, but I'm only with you like 50% at best on this....
