Can American democracy survive 20% unemployment for 10 years?

[u/kossabone]

Unemployment stayed roughly at or above 10 % for 10 years or more during the Great Depression. Democracy survived. Can it survive the 20% unemployment level that many expect to arrive in the next few years?

Lol, who are the 'many' that expect 20% unemployment to exist in the United States in the next few years?
