Things to watch out for

We are not yet at the point of collapse. There is still a long way to go before the country hits bottom. The United States has a lot more pain to go through. Some things to watch out for will be a reduction in basic services. I wish I had blogged about a few weeks ago when I thought of it. Unfortunately I was beaten to the punch by the reality of the economic situation.   

One basic service that is in the process of being reduced is the United States Postal Service. The government is talking about removing a Saturday delivery. I am actually horrified by this prospect. The spin that is being placed on the cut in services is that it will save the postal service money. A possible reality is that the postal service could collapse.  

Another thing to watch out for is a reduction in garbage collection. When that stops in a city it is time to leave. I fear disease more than I fear criminals.
