The Jade Helm invasion? Did I miss something? Did Texas, and or Utah get put under Martial Law?

My premise is simple. War breaks out we cut off the North’s food. We can do it easily as they raise and grow very little of their own food.

1 Month and the people in those huge cities in the north will be eating each other. Including DC.

Meanwhile Southerners, and Westerners will be well fed.

Forget it. How much food do you think the north gets from the south? Not much. Is the south self-sufficient? Nope. Would the teeming cities in the south riot and burn themselves down? Yep. In the event of some kind of civil war between regions, whose side do you suppose the west would be on?

The entire debate is a moot point anyway. The divide isn't south vs. north anymore, it's conservative vs. liberal, and to a much lesser extent, rural vs. urban.

Grow very little of their own food?

State of Michigan would survive very nicely. They might have to smuggle in some onions from Georgia (Valdavias).

Of course they have many folks from the South living there now, so raising an army might be problematical. Also, many "snowbirds" have replaced the "carpetbaggers."

Just a few laughs to lighten up the day from a guy who's been both places.

And Colt’s going bankrupt, Yankee arms manufacturers are moving to ‘right to work’s states (the south) and the north’s manufacturing prowess has moved south and overseas.

I think we could take them this time ... heh.

You’re joking, right?

What the hell do they teach you down there? lol
