Thread: The Temporary Collapse Of Texas Is Foreshadowing The Total Collapse Of The United Sta

    The Temporary Collapse Of Texas Is Foreshadowing The Total Collapse Of The United Sta

    The Temporary Collapse Of Texas Is Foreshadowing The Total Collapse Of The United States

    All it took to cause a short-term “collapse scenario” in the state of Texas was some cold weather
    We are getting a very short preview of what will eventually happen to the United States as a whole.

    America’s infrastructure is aging and crumbling. Our power grids were never intended to support so many people, our water systems are a complete joke, and it has become utterly apparent that we would be completely lost if a major long-term national emergency ever struck.

    Texas has immense wealth and vast energy resources, but now it is being called a “failed state”.

    If it can’t even handle a few days of cold weather, what is the rest of America going to look like when things really start to get chaotic in this country?

    Anyone who has spent any time in any kind of major natural disaster or man-made one knows how fragile our society actually is.

    Once the emergency services structure starts to break down, society goes with it.

    The best, and the worst, comes out in people during times of great stress.

It is treason against mankind to hold a knife to a man’s throat and dictate how he must live his life."

    Kinda scary to think about. Many states in the south only have their water lines buried very shallow. If it stayed cold pipes from the main to houses would break and it would be a real mess.

    Repairing house water lines is no fun, but having to dig up everyones yard to fix things would hurt.

    It happened before, it can happen again.
    It happened there, it can happen here.
    It happened to that person, it can happen to you.
    No one is immune to the trials and tribulations of life.

    Buffalo gets hammered all the time.
    I remember back in the Early 70's my grand father was working with the core of engineers and he was sent to buffalo to help dig them out after a whopper of a snow storm.

    I am pretty sure most Vets understand, the left are deaf, dumb and blind to it though. They will just blame others like now, but I hope when it happens they suffer long and hard when the mess they are creating finally erupts.

    Katrina still sticks in my mind.

    I saw neighborhoods pull together and help one another, while others were stealing gasoline, generators, food and televisions.

    People are both very good and very bad, unfortunately we tend to remember the bad ones over the good ones.

    And if this isn't enough, 4.2 earthquake in Oklahoma; second one in 12 hrs.
    This isn't earthquake area, pretty geologically stable.
