    It is not bipartisan, it only appears bipartisan if you buy into the myth that the Democrat and Republican party represent opposing views. They do not, the leadership of the Republican party is "progressive" lite, they are essentially Democrats. That's why the GOP has been in a civil war between grassroots people (conservatives) and eth leadership politicians.

    Trump is the result of that rebellion of the conservative people against the "progressive" GOP leadership. But Trump is not driving the ship, the nation is still largely controlled by progs.

    Well that's what guilt/sin/blame is for, so you can avoid any and all responsibility. Sounds like your system is dysfunctionally and thoroughly corrupt. But I’m sure if you can just get the proper personalities elected it will all right itself. Hang in there my friend. And remember, progs suck and are responsible for everything you do not like.

    No individual will change the course of the USA, for good or bad it takes a national movement to change the course. Trump is merely a symptom.

    BTW, I do not like Trump, but I voted for him and support him as the (hopefully) camels nose under the DC tent.

    Yes, progs suck, and while I do not like anything they do, they are not responsible for everything I do not like.

    Long as you have an outgroup to despise and an aristocrat to follow.

    You are right there, one would need to be able to build a fire and a shelter with little to nothing. Some of us who were in the military have the basics and could build on it if need be.

    With all the nukes in the world arsenal I am not sure there will be any survivors anyway.

    When economies are gone do you really think there will be a "corporate state" left anywhere?

    Do you read the posts? Closed minded people usually don't.

    Yeh, yer right.... We oughta focus on the positive side of nuclear destruction -- after all, it would create JAWBS! Hell, there's nothing more important than that... right?

    The best time for liberals to worry about nuclear destruction was when reagan was president and he wanted to build Star Wars

    But the Soviets objected and the libeal democrats in congress stalled the project

    The next best time was when bill clinton was president and he punted the problem of nk nukes down the field

    I'd go with being a fit person as #1
    #2 those with the survival skill/training/mindset
    #3 those with the Preps/water/food/arms/tools
    #4 those in a large and tight family and community
    #5 those in a more remote and defensible area

    So an old person with diabetes and on dialysis in the best rural location will perish far quicker than a young fit person in Detroit with no skills or preps.

    Shutting down someone's economy, turning their own weapon systems against them, and causing pure mayhem without having to fire a bullet, is "annoying"?

    Dude, I'm not going to be your professor here. You need to read up on potential cyber attacks and the next world war. Saying that it's "annoying" is pure ****ing ignorance.

    A successful cyber attack on the US would be devastating

    You're probably right... and following the analogy of Clinton 'punting' the whole issue of NK getting nukes down the field, now the North Koreans (helped by their very able 'coach', China) have 'moved the football' all the way up the field, and now are at our 'five-yard line', first-and-goal....

    Clinton ignored the whole thing (while helping China gain the latest American technology), and Idiot Bush allowed himself to become too distracted with his big 'adventure' in Iraq to pay any attention to North Korea.

    And Idiot Obama...? Well, hell... he never did anything but function as the perfect 'house pet' for the Federal Reserve central bank cartel, and none of the big-wig bankers could make time in their busy days to think about something as abstract as a nuclear threat from a piss-hole like North Korea.... And even if his 'handlers' hadn't kept Obama on a short leash, it would have been completely beyond him even to recognize that anything in North Korea could be a lethal danger. Because after all -- there weren't any White people in North Korea, so how could anyone there be doing anything wrong...? :spin:

    Wherever there is increased violence, violence of any kind, jobs go in the tank.

    With nuclear violence that phenomenon would be truly extreme -- a lot of work to be done if the Geiger counter says it is safe to be on the job site, but no way to organize it or pay for it.

    The most valuable thing in that world? A glass of water with no radiation in it, a sandwich with no radiation in it, living to the next sunrise.

    No attack of that kind is going to cause "pure mayhem". At worst, it would cause annoyance and galvanize the target to retaliate in a meaningful way.

    Feudalism has never required one and the outcome for the masses is pretty much the same either way. As for "when ecomomies are gone", we're not there yet.

    Let me ask you a question. How "annoying" would it be if our most powerful weapons were hacked? Do you understand that would mean the US complete vulnerability, inability to attack...etc?

    Never mind. I don't think you'll understand what this means due to your ignorance of modern warfare.
