Yes, U.S. Officials Are Quietly Preparing for BIG Trouble Ahead
A new report by the Army War College's Strategic Studies Institute states flatly the U.S. military must prepare for "a violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States" that could be provoked by "unforeseen economic collapse" or "loss of functioning political and legal order."
Late last year, The Washington Post noted the incoming Obama Administration is going to "earmark" at least 20,000 troops returning from Iraq to deal with "domestic emergencies."

A wise man once told me that, if you turn and face your fears, they are never as bad as your imagination has made them. He's right...more people should try it.
If the delivery trucks can't get fuel to truck food into the major cities there would be riots big time. During a hurricane the stores are out of grocieries in 3 days, just think what would happen if the dollar crashed and nothing to replace it for 3 or 4 months. No credit, cash nothing. All commerence stops. The big cities would be death traps, on the bright side if you have 90 days of food supply, you have a 50% chance of surviving ( if you can keep it safe) due to most people will have starved off by the end of 90 days.

That's the same number for self quarantine if swine flu hits as it will come in waves.

Three and a half years later.....this thread lies dead. Why don't we just bump these old threads instead of creating new ones claiming the exact same things?
