Our good ship America has hit an iceberg and is taking on water fast. The Captain has quietly ordered the media orchestra to keep playing and the stewards to rearrange the deck chairs.
Who will tell us to put on our life jackets and board the life boats? Should we look to government officials, church leaders, business gurus, teachers, or to the wise and elderly who have lived through perilous times to tell us when to panic?
Do we wait until there are long lines at Walmart and fights breaking out over fully-laden shopping carts towards the front of the checkout line?
Should we remain calm until there are marauding gangs or government thugs breaking down our doors to seize food and weapons and our young girls?
Are there ways to avoid the need for panic? Are patience and trust appropriate at the ship's current angle?
