I am still unclear how such a revelation would collapse world economies. I mean I've heard this excuse before - just don't get it. Thanks to Star
Trek, Star Wars, X-Files, Roswell, and other shows for TV & theater, nearly the whole populace of the western world has been prepared if not made
hungry for official revelations of e.t. life.
Assuming e.t.'s exist and that their presence is being covered up - there must be other reasons for the cover-up - particularly technology transfers
whether by crashed Roswell-ian incidents or by direct interaction with the e.t.'s.
Thoughts anyone?

The world may be well aware of UFOs, but to come out with the information would be an admission of guilt on the part of all
governments of the world. The repercussions and possible rioting could be tremendous. Not to mention that nobody in government who is keeping this
secret will be safe once the info is let out. Acknowledgement of a cover up will cause immediate investigations and removal of many political and
military people and insitutions who were in on the secret. The parties involved may react to such a situation with force, especially the military.
Unless you think people won't be calling for heads to roll. I will be calling for it. At least unless I'm pacified with a bullet or some other
means.
There is also the matter of implications for all facets of life such as education, technology, and religion. Everything will have to be acclimated to
this new truth. A lot of what exists today as part of a person's daily life may not exist after the world finds out a lot of it is completely wrong.
Many different fields of study and jobs will suddenly become obsolete or outdated leaving people in a gigantic education gap or unemployable. Yes,
this will have a huge effect regardless of people being slightly aware of it.
