That’s no doubt true. The people will always look to the gov to fix their problems when nothing else does the trick. That is one reason why destruction of our own infrastructure and resources cannot be allowed to happen, by them or us beyond the necessary means to win. Same with hurting any fellow citizen. They may be the enemy one day but should this happen and it is all over they will be our neighbors the next day. We must take a moral road or else face years and years of retaliation wars. All hypothetical of course.
Another reason to be sure to live in or move to a relatively safe sector of the cube in advance of festivities. Restoring normal social life will be easier in Croatia than in Bosnia, etc. There will be less atrocities to forget, much less forgive.
