Not an astute observation, if I may say.  The South didn't come back, it was 
transformed radically and forever.  Japan did not come back, to see how 
radically transformed it was after the war, read Fukuoka's One Straw 
Revolution.  
And look how the German's came back ... for 40 years half the country 
wallowed 
in Soviet style communism.

What's underway here is a great truning of events.  From the blip watcher, 
paper shuffler point of view, it will seem as if everything good and 
worthwhile 
has been swept away.  Form other points of view, it will be a welcome change.

What will happen to everyone?.... serious adjustments.  

And by the bye, your view that the paper shufflers are thriving is because of 
your investment colored glasses.  Hundreds of thousands of them have lost 
their jobs and will soon be devouring their gluffy assets.  People who live 
in 
such a delusional world are very good at denial.  Many a geezer I know has 
seen 
their stock based assets cut in half and yet they continue to draw the same 
monthly amount from their annuity nervously hoping and believing in denial 
that 
it will all turn around and all their money will come back.  On the surface 
these people all seem as if they are just doing fine.
