Just thought I'd clarify that, since the first duty of a rational man when people around him go stark raving mad, is to restate the obvious.
Is to stockpile kleenex.
In a bunker. Out back.
When society collapses, there's gonna be two kinds of people: The haves, and those wiping their noses on their sleeves!
Right. And no one has been killed by a terrorist in this Country for years. I guess we can all stop worrying and just feeeeeel good.
There is a pandemic coming. There is nothing new in history. Pandemics have come in the past, they will come in the future.
There are people looking toward the future trying to figure out what that pandemic will be. The really scary thing is that our society is much different than it used to be.
1. We are a just in time delivery economy. In event of a disaster, the stores will empty with no way to refill them.
2. We as a society have lost structure. People in general do not choose to do the right thing, they choose to do their own thing regardless of the consequences. A quarantine will need to be enforced at the barrel of a gun.
3. Thanks to changes in pay structure introduced by the Clintons, almost all vaccine production in this country has stopped leaving us poorly able to respond quickly to a pandemic.
4. Even if the pandemic is adequately anticipated with adequate time to prepare, there are knuckleheads that will put themselves and those around them at risk because they are afraid to get a shot.
You shouldn’t live in fear but you should give this matter a great deal of respect. Americans are lucky, we haven’t seen death on a large scale but it still happens and will eventually happen here.
