I don't know whether it's true or not, but "they" say we could never have a depression as great as the last, since most accounts are now insured by the FDIC. We also have a lot of foreign investment in American corporations, and Americans have investments in foreign corporations. Both of these help stabalize things when the domestic market is bad, i think (hope) 
Well... your government's already over 10 trillion in debt... and that insurance only lasts whilst your government is keeping up with the repayments...
