If fiat money were to crash we'd be going to the nuclear weapons standard. Those with technology and military would get what they need to survive, albeit in modified form.

Political issues may also impact the nature of currency changes, in that a lack of confidence in a new government may temporarily diminish the value of the nation's currency on the open market. Once confidence is restored, the currency will tend to rise and investors can consider the currency to be a worthwhile investment once again. When currency fluctuations are due to political factors, the impact is often short term, although it can be long term as well.
Maybe we should save are dollars so when then economy recovers are dollars will have more purchaseing power

There is no fiat currency that has ever lasted in the history of mankind, the Federal reserve note is no different. Can't pay debt with more debt, eventually the ponzi scheme crashes. But the vast majority of the general public has no clue what the difference between currency and money is, so the fraud will just start over again for another 30-40 years.

While I approve of moving to history for lessons, there has never been a time like this in history where there was ONLY fiat currency and instant global communications.

It's not going away. It may devalue over time as inflation eats it, but that's true of anything.
