I'm guessing the situation is going to get MUCH worse before it gets better. On the bright side, it'll be a good lesson and wake-up for the pretender-to-wealth yuppie class. Those people have totally identified with their truly-wealthy enemies, thinking they actually give a damn about yuppie well-being, or, worse, by convincing themselves that they are truly wealthy, too. Sad thing is, it will affect all us working-class folks as well, folks who figured out at an early age to be wary and mistrustful of those with wealth. We are so royally screwed.
