Think about it if data lines go down and not recover all your money is digital NO ATMs NO BANKS NO GAS for transportation = NO FOOD.
EMP = doom for at least 2 3rds of population of any country
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29907687 There you go! We need the EMP over the USA, actually far more than just one...in order to deny all the "eaters" as you call them the food stamps you hate them for.
Stop all the electronic transaction and all of the poor, elderly on SS, the disabled, and all the "useless" people you hate cannot last for long. It takes away their medications and medical care too...great! They will die sooner. The idle rich who live to spend money on themselves will also perish…they can’t eat without their money. This just keeps looking better and better!
I am surprised the USA does not just nuke us and blame the No Koreans. It would get rid of a lot of our problems. Only the strong would survive...and the conscripted labor force would obey the new rules imposed on them just to be fed.
There would be lots of jobs…bodies to burn…a modern grid to build, farms to be taken over and worked. Yup, work for all and no “useless eaters.”
The Well-protected rulers have plenty stored for their survival so all around it is a great idea.
Wow, I can hardly wait!
