I can't imagine allowing a single source of traffic to put me out of business.

Frankly, I think you're right, you should probably move on to a more stable business.

Am I the only one that is looking at google, and it's influence, and realizing that website owners are now moving away from business strategies, and more into gambling (which is what depending on google is starting to be).

There are literally hundreds (if not thousands) of ways to generate traffic OUTSIDE of google (or any search engine for that matter. There may be SOME "website owners" that are abandoing their limited (i.e. SEO-only) business strategy, but those with half am ounce of real business sense woudl never stake their profitability on SEO alone.
