Well as you asked, whether the govt could cope or not is a moot point, that is out of my hands. I look to things I can control. I do not expect any help, nor will I seek it. The fact that there MAY be rioting and looting, again, is of little consequence because neither you or I can control that either. I can control access to my property, I can store rations, I can prepare as best I can to ride out a problem. That's why I prep. Moaning about whether the govt can or can't manage, or is a useless govt does no-one any good. The only way we could possibly alter any outcome is to vote for the other side. And if you don't vote, well, don't complain about what is lacking in the govt as you didn't take part in any decision.
