Re-boot is when you see deflation after inflation can't be sustained anymore. Nations usually focus their discontented populace outwards to external "threats" when facing economic collapses, because it invigorates and unifies the people. Winston Churchill said of FDR..."I've never seen a politician who wanted war more than Mr. Roosevelt."
As the system winds down, and people re-allocate their purchasing priorities from cheap, worthless Chinese crap sold at China-Mart, and spend it on food, energy, water treatment, and security, those things will become disproportionately valuable. Unfortunately, most people who work in services that facilitate the importation, distribution, and retail sale of said Chinese garbage will lose their jobs, exacerbating the collapse.
When grocery chains shut down first in the inner cities and lower-tier priority markets to those with the most buying power and influence on distribution, the crap starts to hit the fan. In many ways, America's unique insulation from these types of events has camouflaged them as they have already begun, especially when you look at Detroit and other areas that were hit the worst by the credit crisis and following housing bubble burst, followed by waves of foreclosures.
As enough critical mass builds when banks continue to fail under the emasculation by socialists in D.C., unable to recoup their losses after being forced to give mortgages to people who refuse to have bank accounts, and are chronically in and out of jail, the losses will have to be absorbed somehow by the rest of us. Compound that with the same bottom-feeders who then strip the homes of copper wiring, plumbing, fixtures, and vandalize them as squatters, then move to the next neighborhood, and you compound the losses significantly.
It's very unrealistic to expect there to be a day when this all happens in the US, because that day has already passed, and the wave just builds slowly in numerous places until that critical mass transitions from low boil, to rapid boil. The National "leadership" (bwah ha ha ha ha ha) already had the "focus angst outward to foreign threats" card played in the last Administration, so there isn't anywhere to turn but inwards.
I think a trigger point is when the working class that used to be middle class and business owners lose their low-income jobs (while watching enough bottom feeders living a middle class lifestyle without working). Especially when many of them can no longer afford to take care of the truly helpless among us, while the Obama-voters/illegal immigrants go cruising by in their pimp cars with luxury electronics smoking dope and blasting their brainless drone sounds on the way to the next drug deal, while plowing over the carcasses of innocent children and bystanders...oh wait, we're already there.
All I can say is, "This too shall pass." and "Be of good cheer." Might as well choose to be happy and spend time with our families with the days we have left. On that note, I'm off to do exactly that.
