Apocalypse Preparation

Sup readers. I've recently started watching a show on Discovery called "the colony". It's about a world in which a viral outbreak causes mass panic and the government falling apart. Anyways it's gotten me to thinking about how possible all of this actually is. Quite frankly it startles me to know how quickly we can fall into anarchy (ie. post Katrina). All humans are capable of this animalistic view of survival "survival of the fittest", and in dire times I believe that we are all capable of things we would consider beastly or savage just to get by.

I will elaborate more on this as the time goes on. But for now this is just the proposition that this could happen, and it could happen rather easily.

  6. I'll elaborate tomorrow... haha. It's just a simple proposition that without government control/policing and a limited amount of goods, we would collapse into an anarchistic system in which the fittest survive. As do those who are willing to do anything to survive.

  7. I actually don't have cable either.
    I've been watching shows on casttv.com -- they have most of the discovery channel shows on their website and it's free/adless.

    Followed all.
