Yes, watching something as big as a nation circling the bowl can be fun in a way.

It’s not that it’s fun. It’s that I ignore it. I’ve said to people that I feel like the Bruce Willis character in The Twelve Monkeys, when he’s visiting the past shortly before it comes undone. I see it almost like it is a “happier” past than the future I’m from and I’m truly enjoying it.

And I moved to an area where the bad stuff still has little effect on me. I’m dead serious when I say if feels like I’ve stepped back in time 50 years here, but with modern conveniences. It’s in the little things like seeing a pickup go by with six kids in the back - and nobody cares.

Hopefully, you have a woodstove and a well with a hand pump. I believe the electrical grid will tend to collapse with the rest of the country.
