I just remembered that I have seen a couple different commercials in the last year or so about a teenage boy or a family getting a flat tire and calling the insurance company to come fix your flat for you. How wonderful it is to use your smart phone, just sit in the car and someone will come fix your problem.

Fucking unbelievable.
My daughters can change tires and their oil.

Not that I know of. The answer seems to be “the Fed will ship in some money, and we’ll run ATMs on generators”.
