    Rich people (top 10-20%) are either financially smart or have financially smart people advising them. They will be well diversified in all asset classes. And will have a lot of liquid capital ready to buy after the bubble bursts. And also keep themselves fat and well fed. The wealth transfers up.

      You are of course right as enough market crashes and crisis have shown.

      In the end it will have to be too miserable for a large percentage of the population with enough freedom to resist. Sadly governments everywhere are working very hard at mitigating the possibilities of resistance.
