Your continued "creative editing" of what appear to be quotes is amazing. Nah - it's not that amazing that you'd have to resort to it. But unless you have a way of editing other people's original posts, your tactic has already failed.

"Too bad there's nothing that people like you can do to change the status quo. I bet that drives you crazy. "

Holy handjive, Batman! A complete Marie Antoinette think alike! History.

"Those dirty people are so much less than you because they can be self reliant, unlike you, who are helpless to actually do any work to fend for yourself

"When you say "fend for yourself" you're talking about some Grizzly Adams fantasy you might have. Most people in this country have gotten past such a quaint notion. "

So far, nobody but you thinks that being prepared to meet your basic needs in a disaster is the same as a "Grizzly Adams fantasy". Nor does anyone else take the inability to do so as a sign of superiority. Jamestown. But no big deal. I'm not responsible for how your brain is wired to intentionally misconstrue, and then believe its own confabulations.

"So, keep living in your compound, dreaming of the apocalypse. Make sure to stock up on tin foil, though."

Again, you are the only one who calls a temporary interruption of supplies and services to be the same thing as "the apocalypse". (You can lie about that as much as you like, but the record of what you have said here does not lie.) And again, I can't help it if your mind does this to you, out of a deep down knowledge that for you, it *would* be an apocalypse. But just a little blip for the rest of us. How proud is your wife that you couldn't, and refuse to be, able to do anything to help her in a natural disaster? Does she think that's something to look up to you for?

There is a high level of paranoia in your fears of some sort of disaster that would disrupt civilization as we know it.

No, but you and your kind seem to obsess about the possibility of some societal breakdown. Like I said, stock up on tin foil.

My wife lives in the real world, like I do, where fears of some sort of terrible natural disaster are the province of paranoids.

And how utterly "proud" you must be to drag a man's wife into a debate you're having with him. Sounds like a real ~~"chivalrous"~~ scummy way for a man to conduct himself in a debate with another man...but maybe that's just me.
