economic collapse is because of two events
the federal reserve founded in 1913
going off the precious metal (gold, silver) standard in 1971
When the market crashed in 2008 there hasn't been a recovery: Everything since then is aftershocks.

The only solution is to get back on the gold standard. At this point I don't think any administration or congress could actually do it. A state could do it, at least technically.
