Not likely. Though my life is interesting enough for that to be a possibiiity. You and the other guy are boasting about propping up the system. Keep America moving and all that. It's a truck driver mentality.
You sound like a Calvin Coolidge business conservative - what can I tell you? America's business is business. You measure your worth by your economic output. It's a vulgar attitude. I'd rather starve to death. I may even do so.

Probably correct. Unless you focus on the characteristics of our species instead. Civilization could work just fine with limited technology, and a species completely different to ours.
Same. My little machine shop has been very profitable the first four weeks. January and February are usually very slow weeks when it comes to manufacturing in my neck of the woods. So this is nice so far.
I have been keeping machine shops busy as well. Harder to get replacement parts and the ones I do get are junk. Better to pay a good local guy to get it right instead.
