The Jive Economy - Clusterfuck Nation by James Howard Kunstler
More probably, we'll be dragged kicking and screaming into an epochal contraction of economy... Instead of preparing for it intelligently by doing things like promoting small scale local farming, local networks of commerce, and rebuilt railroads (things, incidentally, which are within the powers of government to promote) we'll squander our dwindling capital and political resources fighting over the table scraps of the twentieth century. Life is tragic, history is merciless, and societies don't always make good collective choices.
