Sacrifices of A New Depression

It is scary to think of what a new depression would be like. One can only imagine the lifestyle they might be forced to lead, the sacrifices they must make. In the instance that today's recession may become so intense that it may be considered a second "depression", people would be forced to sacrifice what little luxuries they might have and give everything up so that they might survive. People would have to leave their homes and sell all of their belongings to get the money to eat. Children and teenagers would have to quit school to try and find a job to support their families- albeit illegally. Along with that would come a large increase in crime, robbery, murder, prostitution, drug dealing. When money becomes unavailable the country would go into turmoil, with no possible signs of assistance from the government. People would be forced to give up everything just so that they might survive in this godforsaken wasteland.
