I'd suggest you watch the recent show called "American Blackout," because even the liberals say the power grid is antique and very vulnerable, so such a scenario is a real possibility. I've only seen about the first 30 minutes, but it's enlightening, to say the least. It will be eye-opening for lots of people like you, as long as they are not COMPLETELY kool-aid brain dead. Just hope you know a few of those big, bad, evil Republican guys with guns and food, as the people you champion daily will be trying to eat your leg, liberal meat or not - lol.
