And the revolution comes to a screeching halt 2 hours after the Feds turn off the electrical grid and the formerly rebellious citizens march into camps for the promise of a shower and a hot meal.

I’m not sure it’ll even start, but if it does, it’ll be very short and the good guys will “win”. Whatever that means.

That's all local stuff. If the feds tried it, the States and counties would seize the power grid and switch it back on. Nobody's going to put up with that crap.

I've read here and elsewhere the notion that the Libtards are hoping that forcing a collapse will force everybody into the arms of the federal government. Sorry, folks, that's not the way collapse works. Read Tainter's "The Collapse of Complex Societies." What happens in collapse isn't a further centralization of federal power, but rather a devolution of power to the next lowest economically-viable quantum.

We've seen it many times in the past 30 years. The Soviet Union shed it's Eastern European empire and also split along its federal internal borders. Same thing happened in Yugoslavia. Ditto Czechoslovaki. The US is devolving power right now.

I think that a full-on split of Red States from Blue States is very possible in the next few years.
