“Within a year of that attack, nine out of 10 Americans would be dead, because we can’t support a population of the present size in urban centers and the like without electricity,”

Sounds like something the environazis would support.

I don’t think “dead” but it would get Max Max-y quickly.

The Lear Jet Leftists absolutely would be okay with this.

They’d have America’s wealth and beatuty all to themselves — with the expectation of enslaving the Third World populations whose existence is independent of modern technology.

Well, I suspect that those of us in the rural areas of flyover country will fare better than the urban dwellers.

Since the urban areas tend to be populated by quite a few liberals..... well you finish the sentence.LOL

I don’t consider electricity a necessity of life, it’s a really nice convenience that I would not like to do without, but we have had to do just that for a week or so at a time over the years.

It wasn’t a big deal. Just fix meals the right size so you don’t have leftovers to refrigerate. What you have to have to survive is shelter, water, food, waste disposal and security. Everything else is icing on the cake. JMHO.

Anyone who doesn’t have the book EATING OFF THE GRID might want to get it, especially if they are concerned about the Grid going down, and the negative impact of that.

We pretty much have all the essentials covered where we live for an EMP attack. Still have a few things to do for earthquake, fallout from suitcase nuke, and economic collapse.
