A True Doomsday Prepper
Yeah, I'm certainly not talking about retreating. On a personal level, I agree. But talking about our nation, like PP had said about the elections, I'm not sure there is an easy solution... and I don't see a solution at all, unfortunately. I think we're just going to have to deal with hard times until people get fed up enough for a revolt and that will cost a lot of lives.
At least, historically, that's how things have happened.
Hard times make tough men. Tough men make easy times. Easy times make weak men. Weak men make hard times.
We've passed the point of tough men on a national scale.
The good thing, about people who get soft, if there is one to be had, is the Princess and the Pea syndrome. They have a low threshold for being made uncomfortable and thus, the breaking point is lower. There is only so much deflection that the press can do before it becomes obvious what is the cause of it all. AS long as things are peaceful. Once that goes out the window on one side of the political spectrum, you have just handed them a BIG FAT obvious scape goat to pin their sins on.
Banish the goat into the wilderness and...Poof! No more sins on you.
