I wonder what happens when they realize that food does not come from the back room of the supermarket and they don't just create hamburger at the local McDs.
“when they realize that food does not come from the back room of the supermarket”-
I’m guessing it will look a lot like Venezuela is looking these days...
They'll get the national government to send the army out to the countryside, where they will try to take over the farms and run them as if they were great big empty cities.
This is the technique that was used by Lenin and Stalin when the kulaks tried to pull the "let's see what happens when the city folks discover that food doesn't come from the market."
They'll try it again in our case too.
But first they'll have to do away with the Second Amendment. That's why the day they do that - and they will - is the day the balloon goes up.
