You understand what we learned way back when.

So what’s been done about it? Tell me how you will move a military convoy across the country with tens of thousands of dead cars clogging freeways?

And you’re gonna transport ALL water and food via military flights, with NO local support? Come on. We couldn’t even send troops to the Middle East for the Gulf War without US Air, Delta, and American Airlines. We couldn’t handle Iraq without mercenaries and civilians. The strain on the gubment would be astronomical as hospitals failed by the hundreds, half our troops would be needed to stop riots over no money or food being available.

No, unless the CIVILIAN infrastructure is massively hardened, and EMP blast sends us back to the 600s-—and really even worse, because people largely have forgotten how to make the tools and machines we need to even get back to where we are.
