Our least prosperous people are the most likely to be obese and are the most entertained poor people ever. They are also unused to hard physical labor outdoors in all weather. It’s hard to imagine any sort of sustained civil unrest under these conditions because they have never existed before in recorded history.

Most major cities, NY, LA, DC even ChiTown are near a sea ports if not right on the waters edge. No way to blockade them. Sorry to tell you that. Look at a map.

There’s never been an ideological conflict that brought sustained and widespread civil unrest were the poorest people were the fattest. So far where these conditions exist it seems like no one is going to risk what they already have in great enough numbers to change anything.
