People are spending money but just not on frivolous shit. You dont get it do you? The US government is basically printing money on faith, and the world has no faith in our crooked politicians and economy right now.
This is not even close to over, you WILL be growing your own food by the time this is all said and done.

Also, personal saving went to it's highest level since 1995 which proves people are just scared to spend which is contributing to the trouble.
