You'd be surprised how many people over here are in denial. The vast majority of people either don't recognise it as a reality, or simply don't care. It will be a very, very rude awakening for these people when it does hit the fan.

I've always envisioned it being something similar to Hurricane Katrina. The result of the crash, that is. All-out chaos, lawlessness, mobs swarming the streets fighting over crumbs. It'll be amazing to watch how fast it all goes down the tube when the luxuries people have taken as necessities are no longer available.

Call me what you will, but I'm happy about this. Not just because, like Mynydd says, it may be an opportunity for traditionalism to regain its rightful place in Europe, but because it's warranted. A rotten society should only go so far before it's put out of its misery. This is long overdue.

I'm hoping we'll revert to our instincts, and people will finally see political correctness, multiculturalism and other leftist constructs for the facades they are.
I'm afraid that poverty will bring much more cannon fodder to the extreme left.

This could also lead to a fascistization of the elites, being afraid of a new communism, or, perhaps more likely given the frail intellectual defenses they have, to a disastrous compromise between such elites and the rising left, which would lead to a sovietized state of thing.

I hope you are right, tough ..
