9. It is worrisome about the American dollar

I feel fortunate that my house is paid for and have no credit card debt. But this being America, we use dollars to buy groceries and gas. What are average Americans going to do when the dollar becomes worthless? Most Americans can't move to another country, we can't convert our meager savings to Euros or gold. We need dollars to buy the necessities. How are average Americans going to survive? Maybe we will need to return to using the barter system.
